Bottles and their contents

Index of Tips and Tricks  •  Complete Walkthrough

First, here are the locations of those four bottles:

Bottles' locations

Ordon Village

Given by the shopkeeper after bringing back her cat

Faron Woods

To be bought at Coro's Lantern Shop (the Oil Merchant) (see the walkthrough)

Hyrule Castle Town

Given by Jovani in his house after giving him 20 Poe Souls

Hena's Fishing Hole

After bringing back the Light in Lanayru Province, go to Upper Zora's River and enter Hena's Fishing Hole, in the north part on the map. Get on the little bridge to the west and use your Fishing Pole to the west of the bridge. With some patience, you'll fish this bottle.
Personally, I found it more to the north of this part of the pond, neither close to the bridge nor close to the wall in the back, rather in the middle.
