noticed this bottle for sale on a buy and sell site , not necessary interested in buying it myself but left wondering who it was from ?

I checked all my bottle books and Toronto bottle book and no reference to " The Java Company Toronto "

as all I have on it is the paper label , we know the 12 oz green bottle its on is very common and worthless . but tough to date an exact time period as it used for a while

says " a delicious refreshing beverage , Java registered , bottled under authority the java company Toronto " minimum contents 12 fl oz

typically those green bottles were used for beer , but label doesn't say its beer and no reference to alcohol . java is also associated with cola or coffee so likely some sort of cola drink

I have never seen the bottle but I do have quite a few new old stock unused labels from Java. Top leftView attachment 225800

is it a real company ? are those labels from real bottlers , it just makes me kind of wonder

maybe someone put an older looking label on an older green beer bottle

I thought they were real bottlers but have not researched at all. I bought some items, mainly 6 pack carriers a few years ago and I was asked if I wanted these. I said sure. They look legit.

the label looks real , its odd there not listed in any of the bottler books but does appear they operated in Toronto at some point in time
