Abstract: A handled closure device includes a closure body, a closure cap and a handle. The closure body has spaced upper and lower portions and defines an interior cavity extending between the upper and lower portions. The interior cavity has an open bottom adapting the closure body to be fitted over and receive an upper portion of a bottle containing a liquid. The handle is attached to and extends both outwardly from and between the upper and lower portions of the closure body. The closure device also includes first interfitting elements defined on the closure cap and the upper portion of the closure body and being adapted to mount the closure cap on the upper portion of the closure body for undergoing rotational movement relative to the closure body between an opened position wherein flow of liquid is permitted from the bottle through the closure device and a closed position wherein flow of liquid is prevented from the bottle through the closure device.
