Info on two bottled spirits (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

genii

'bottled spirits' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'info on two' is the wordplay.
'info' becomes 'gen' (informal term for information).
'on' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'two' becomes 'II' (Roman numerals).
'gen'+'ii'='GENII'

(Other definitions for genii that I've seen before include "Arabian spirits" , "bottled spirits" , "masterminds" , "Personal spirits" , "Guiding spirits" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sunday Times and The Times.
