A 258-year old bottle of Cognac — one of just three of its kind still in existence — sold for £118,850 (€131,990) in an online auction on Thursday, Sotheby's has revealed.

The bottle of amber elixir was produced in 1762 by the Maison Gauthier in France and is the oldest vintage Cognac ever to be sold at auction.
