unstoppered

Bottle now accessible

Unstoppered means having had the stopper removed.

A stopper is a plug that seals a bottle or container, so to unstopper is to open it by removing that plug.

The word appears most often in literary or formal contexts: She unstoppered the vial and breathed in the fragrance.

An unstoppered bottle is one left open.
