Answer
Hola Lorenzo!

I can't tell you the age of this bottle without more information.

Distilled products like this do not improve with age in the bottle--the alcohol is too high

The producers of such products  always disguise the age--so they can sell the prodicts at any time.

The liquid inside won't have any value for this reason.

The bottle might be worth more--but these ar not usually collectible.

You can make sure by asking at antiquebottles.com.

Sorry that I can't give you more exciting news.

It should be safe to drink.
