Description

A tongue-in-cheek bottle of Old Overcoat Wry Whiskey, a take on the Old Overholt bourbon whiskey. The label states this was 'aged in cedar chests', is 'moth-proof', and was 'Bottled in Bars' by Par Beverage Corp, Cincinnati, Ohio.

This bottle of flavouring does not contain any alcohol, the ingredients are listed as: Water, Glucose, Artifical Flavor, Caramel Color, Critic Acid, less than 1/10 of 1% benzoate of soda.

We estimate this was bottled in the 1940s.

This Old Overcoat Wry Whiskey sold at our online auction for £8
