Topic: Mystery bottle. What is it?

Made in Italy, meant for any drink but mostly for Grappa - and often sold with Grappa filling. The inner should not be filled. You can, but it is a messy hassle. The material is usually Borosilicate glass, so in spite of light weight quite sturdy.

I would have guessed 15 to 20 was more realistic - I think half a liter of top grappa in one of these bottles will set you back 27 Euros. They also turn up in charity shops quite often. Well, here at least.
