Title: nice bottles
Post by: Mrs Ava on August 09, 2004, 22:40:27
I am desperately trying to buy some nice bottles for my sloe and damson gin.  I am after the bottles with the rubber ring at the top and the glass stopper is wired on, do you know what I am getting at?  If you have ever drunk Grolsch, well, kinda like that.  Anyone ever bought any, and if yup, where from please?   ;D

EJ have a look at this site, they do online ordering. I use them for bath oil bottles but haven't checked out the food and beverage so not sure what their minimum order quantities are. They sell by the case/pallet but some cases are (in the case of the bath oil bottles I ordered) quite small quantities, 24 I think. BUT, look for the page where you can order samples, I think you're allowed up to 20 units as samples, the bath oil bottles I ordered worked out at about £1 each plus delivery cost.

Other than that, have you tried Lakeland, they do online ordering if you don't have a shop near you.

Spot on Jesseveve.  Found the type of bottles I like, and as you say, I can order a sample pack - 20 bottles for just under 12 quid, so not bad at all!  I shall be hanging onto that site for sure.  Thanks for the link!  ;D

EJ remember the lids (if sold as a separate unit) are counted as one unit, ie a sample pack of 20 will give you 10 bottles and 10 lids, unless the lids are attached and included as a unit with the bottles in which case you'll get 20 bottles, and you need to add the good old VAT to the price.

If you want a smaller quantity Mrs D. got a couple in Habitat in Chelmsford -bit like a long necked tear drop with a flat bottom I used them for the elderflower cordial

Here's another site that sells bottles and jars (and all sorts of other things) at a good price.
