I use mini card 'luggage' labels that hang around the neck of the bottle.
Cheap cheerful, rustic looking and easy to remove and reuse

I like to label my bottles using a Dymo thermal label printer. Bought it new from eBay for about £40. They're only black and white but if you spend a little time, you can make a nice clean modern looking label.

That's not bad Arf.
I banged out a quick label in a couple of minutes,and saved it with snipping tool,in order not to sign up.
I might use that again,thanks for the heads up.

My mate with the laser engraving machine hasn't sussed out the attachment for engraving bottles yet, he's done some work on flat sheets of glass and it looks good, he's busy making a living from his new machine so I'll have to wait a week or so to get a sample bottle done, we did engrave the anodising on the side of my e-cig battery for a laugh.

i totally agree but as i get older it's harder to keep track of what's what. #Alzheimer's

I guess it is whatever works for you,label or marker pen.As long as all is properly known or marked,you will be safe,and not drinking Rum flavored water.
That was a killer anecdote by the way.

I used to do that too but started labelling for a bit of fun when I noticed I was building up stock. It's mainly for the laugh but it does help with dating the contents and I put batch numbers on grain based spirits.

Even though I have a goodly amount of spirits building up, currently 12 cases of Bourbon Style and BBQ Smokey Whisky and 11 cases of Vodka I still keep making more cause I just love the whole process and with our friends looking forward to the BBQ Season kicking off on Paddy's Day that lot won't last pissing time
