the bottle is approx 6 inches tall, clear glass with a collar and seems all the way up the sides to the top with a cork shaped like a mushroom but flat on the top.
The label says Rodney old rum, blended and bottled in the "Rodney cellars" cornmarket, derby.
being as im from derby I thought that I would find out more history .
on the back of the bottle there is raised letters Cox & malin ltd derby (shaped in a circle) with a square logo in the middle (of the same text)
and on the bottom of the bottle again raised letters looks like JLCOCOC and a number ? 129L4
