A tall story tells that the bottle was originally made by a mistake. A glassblower got the hiccups, resulting in the air within the bottle, he was in the middle of making, was being sucked out instead of blown up. Thereby the sides collapsed and the middle and the corners formed columns.
When you are pouring from the bottle the air resistance makes the glug-sounds, while the liquid is trying to pass the narrow columns. The look of the bottles is charming and the sounds just an extra bonus.
