The Signature.
To distinguish the original and genuine Worcester shire Sauce from the many imitations, see that the signature of Lea & Perrins appears in White across the Red label on every bottle.
No other sauce has such an exquisitely delicate flavour, or such a reputation among discriminating people in every part of the world.
