Duffy’s pure malt whiskey was touted as medicinal, however it was really medical quackery. The bottle is in amazingly good condition with the original cork and parts of the original paper labels still attached. It is a tall dark amber-colored round glass bottle with an embossed design on the front and a simple straight ring-finish and was designed to be corked. Mold seams run up to the neck and are visible on two sides.
