bottles-bottling Seeking 6 oz Woozy bottles

[SoSaucyBmore]

Numerous google searches have yielded no results. I'm checking here to see if anyone within the community might have an obscure source. I'm looking for 6 oz Woozys (170ml? 185 ml?). There's a Walkersworld Scotch Bonnet sauce that comes in 6oz bottles so I know they exist. The bottles pictured here say 170 ml. The one I have in my hand right now says 'Net 6 fl oz / 185 ml) Dont know which is the proper ml. Any help tracking them down would be appreciated.

on their website only 5 oz bottles are listed. not sure where you got the image but 6 oz glass woozys are a unicorn.

The contents are not the size of the bottle, for example, a regular woozie is 5.5 oz, but the label will say 5 oz because the sauce stops at the neck. Hope this helps your search.
 
But here is a 6 oz. https://www.berlinpackaging.com/5014b44-b-6-oz-clear-glass-hot-sauce-bottles-cap-not-included/

PS. That bottle shape you posted is popular in the UK. I know this from various sauces I have had from there.

when i called it a unicorn i figured they(6 oz bottles) exist but are hard to find. most all sauces come in 5 oz size.

ok after doing some more research, I think these are considered worcester / worcestershire sauce bottles. But I cant find anyone in the US that sells them.

 

[The Hot Pepper]

The word woozy is short for worcestershire bottle . Those 5 and 10 ounce bottles for worcestershire, the 5 oz became famous for hot sauce.

So here's some insight into why I'm looking for this. I'm working on a private label sauce for a friends restautant. He wants a bottle thats kind of unique. He doesnt want it to be in a traditional 5 oz woozy. The Walkerswood bottle has a different neck curve going on than a regular woozy and I think it would be easy to sell him on the slight variation instead of going with a boston round or stout bottle. I'd be open to any other suggestions at this point.

 

[The Hot Pepper]

Yes the neck curve, I call it high shoulders, I've seen this style before but they do seem hard to find. I know for a fact I've gotten them from Europe but the bottle suppliers seems to have the ones like we have so not sure where these boutique companies get them. I will keep looking.

aahh "high shoulders" is the term I should be using. thanks!

Here's a suggestion for you:

It's a good size for a restaurant and the flat sides allow some good promotion with their name on it.

You can also tailor the bottle to your ingredients. For example if there is maple in it you could use a maple syrup bottle. If there is bourbon in it or this is a BBQ restaurant, a flask style would fit nicely. Etc.
 
Or they just look cool anyway!!!

Okay I found the woozy with more rounded shoulders and long neck aka "wide mouth woozy" aka "fancy bottle".

this is the regular:

Side by side you can see the difference:

Also you can't assume that the WW bottle is not custom. That's the closest option I have seen.

This most likely will work.

True. I've been thinking. Might explain why they switched to just regular woozys.

No prob hope it works out. Maybe the cap color can be tied to their logo color.
