HaHa, I would not image my father bought the bottles full,

he was a homemade ( by the dustbin full ) Rhubarb wine drinker,

I can remember drinking Rhubarb wine from my babies bottle when I was a toddler, ( well nearly ) where's the liar's bench lol

clearing out late fathers home we came across 4 such bottles but no lids/caps, I bottle had the original cork, so am short 3 screw on caps,

I have contacted Bells but they say there is no call for the gallon bottles and so do not hold stock any longer,

cheers.......................

Meaning nothing but respect here.
Bells may not be one of my favourite blends.
Hats off to anyone that buys his whisky in Gallon jugs!

I have a half gallon whisky bottle and use a standard demijohn cork which you should be able to get from any homebrew shop for around 15p.

Love the molten wax suggestion.
