Some budapest & NY color

[ecotramper412]

Went backpacking this weekend but passed an "antique" shop on the way out. Someone had turned their house into a permanent yard sale. The woman selling the goods was super nice and she had some really interesting things. At first I didn't see any bottles... but it never hurts to ask.

I really like all 3, but the green Zwack bottle was found by my girlfriend as we were leaving. It was tucked back in the corner and I think it may have been the find of the day.

The Unicum bottle is adorable, but it's a FLF.. the other two are most likely quite a bit better.. no offense to the G/F of course!
You ever taste it? It's slightly more bitter than Jaegermeister..

Yeah I figured it was pretty new. The striations on the neck are what sold me, although its recent it still looks a bit rough.

If its similar to jaeger I dont plan on ever tasting it... I'll stick to whiskey.

I was surprised to find this: http://cgi.ebay.com/Mini-Grenade-Type-Unicum-Budapest-Stomach-Bitters-1910-/350475444835?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item5199f6e263
