artefacts from the ancient Peruvian Moche culture and all contain Pisco, the national drink
             of Peru. Also from Artesanal are the three colours of bonking frogs (what, you thought I
            would stick to the naked ape?).



















            The overly well endowed men, both above and below, are from Sotelo and also contain
            Pisco. As well as the grey, brown and red above there is also a silver version. The three
            below also have an equally well endowed darker brown brother.

                                                                        The next bottles are from El

                                                                        contain – Pisco (what else?).

                                                                        There are again a number of

                                                                        www.minibottlelibrary.com. Note

                                                                        on them and some that don’t.














            We next travel to the ‘Garden of Eden.’ As far as I
            know this was not in Peru but I doubt that this was in
            Spain either, which is where most of the Adam & Eve,
            or is that Adan & Eva, bottles come from. The Spanish
            company Campeny has made lots of figurals but I bet
            the Adam & Eve pair are their most popular. The first
            four are bottles made of plaster over glass and
            contain Licor del Paraiso. The final Campeny pair are just glass bottles and contain
            Sangria wine. The final two Adam & Eve are from Italian company, Niccolo. They contain
            Amaro liqueur.
