Very peculiar BLACK bitters cabin bottle 1870

bstick

I have a rather odd and unique bitters cabin bottle which I can't find any reference to on the interwebs. Aside from the fact I can't find a single image match, the most interesting aspect came when I tried to determine the color. I placed a 2000 lumen flashlight (brighter than car headlights) up to the glass, however absolutely zero light passes through. The only wording on the bottle is:

BITTERS CABIN and ABCC DENVER COL 1870

The glass appears to be molded rather than blown.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for posting this unusual cabin bottle.

Despite the embossing, this is a modern piece. It is new to me. For this one in particular I would refer you to a Facebook group called "Cabin Bottle Collectors" - I am sure someone in that group can help.
