DO hereby certify, that the request Of the House Of
Gottg WILL Of this place, have made analytical
examination Of o. Wolfe Aromatic schiedam schnapps,
with the object Of ascortaning il It contained any sub
stance noxious health. and inform them as to its
composition and relative quality with the other gins
that offered the market and the results OF my OBJ
servations and experiments as follows;
Udopho Wolfes Aromatic schiodam schnapps is
sprituous liquid. Of very agreeable aromatic odor,
completely transparent and almost coorless having only
very slight tint Of yelowish gray; its flavor is strong
very agreeable the palate marks 20 degrees in
Carriers alcohol wegher 50 degrees hundredih in
Gay Lussaas alcohomeue. By the dstila,ion in a ba-
aium maria, with apparatus consisting Of glass
and recipient surrounded with ice have collected
in this recipient alcoholic liquid with very agreeable
aroma completely colorless and Transparent which
marked 80 degrees in Carriers Alcoholic weigher,
~ degrees hundredth Gay Lussacs alcohometre
and which represented whole 81 per Of Aromat
c schicdam Schnapps subject TO dislation in the
tort This liquid did not soil the transparency Of the
distilled in mixing it with the same and its agree
able is doubtless due a very triang Of
an essential oil inseparable from alcohol.
From the remainder Of the disla,on which let in
the retor have obtained through evaporation in a
por bath substance Of yeowish brown color clear.
and having bitter which is not disagreeabe, and
which afterwards becomes aromatic and leaves the mouth
pcrfumed with that fragrance peculiar to the vanilla
inclined believe that to this bitter and aromatic
cxtraove substance soluble in water and alcohol, the
medicinal properties which attributed this gin
due. have not found in Udolpho Wolfe's Aromatic
Schiedam Schnapps any mineral organic substance
other than the oxracye already named and the
matte obtained by distlation. Finally, Udolpho
Wolfes Aromatic Schicdam schnapps consists simply Of
aromatic alcohol Of 20 degrees Of graduation in Car
tiers alcoholic wegher, and of exuactive bitter
matte substance, which, perhaps, is medcinal and,
account Of its containing any matter injurious the
health, well for its odor and good aavora fact
which doubt arises from the choice substances
ployed in its manufacture. and from the peculiar
Of It's distiaton 1t should, in my opinion be preferred
1 TO all the Holland, Begic and German gins which are
found in this Island which has been my business
anime These gins as have often proved it, exhac
disagreeabe odor, and have less dsagreeable
favor, some Of them having left the with
the superior gin from the distillery Of Mr.. Hen

licious bitter and aromatic favor OF that of Udopho
Wolfe and Others such that labelled "Genuine sa

nished very small quantity Of greensh substance,
Of harsh metallic taste and very dsagreeable which

with signs Of iron, owing, perhaps, bad system of
distiuaton.
certify that all that Is here stated is the TRUTH and
agrees with the experiments have made with the great
care, and authorize the house Of Gottg WILL Of
this city, give publicity TO this certificate in Spanish
and in foreign languages, in all countries where it may
suit their interest to do so.
