Very interesting, Jay.
The bottle showed at the first pic, the bottle sealed with a salmon surmounted by a hexagram...
"The salmon (in German 'Der Lachs') is the trade mark of the distillery 'Der Lachs' or 'Der Danzinger Lachs', in 1770 situated in the Breitgasse, Nº. 52, in Danzing and still existing now in Nörten Hartenberg, Poland, formerly Germany. In 1711 Isaac Witwe Ling (the widow of Isaac Ling) was one of the owners of this 'salmon liqueur' (in German 'Lachs Likör') distillery.
For religious or mystical reasons, the liqueur also contains many small flakes of gold, hence its alternative name 'Danzinger Goldwater' (in german 'Danzinger Goldwasser')."
