Nice little bottle (a naggin), and looks original.
This is an excellent curio and a nice piece of history, probably containing pot still from the original John's lane distillery.
The actual bottler will not affect the value of this bottling as every retailer, wine merchant and pub bottled these in the day so unless it is a very famous establishment with a following no real affect on value.
However this is something that collectors would be interested in but unfortunately I do not think it will be of any major value.
Whiskey from this period is still fairly common and from that point of view the whiskey itself is not overly rare.
So from a regular collectors point of view 30-50 Euro is my guesstimate but that is all it is ... a guess as I'm not sure on the collectablity of naggins.
However it could easily be a case that a minitures collector may have a bigger interest in it. Again unfortunately it may be too large for those collectors.
An idea would be to contact the Celtic Whiskey shop to see what they say?
