"Of each sort" means there are probably different kinds or types of a thing and one is referring to each of that type.
So, "Twenty of each sort" means 20 of each kind of that product.
For example, if there are 4 types of bottles, lets say blue, green, red and yellow, then twenty bottles of each. (20 blue, 20 green, 20 red and 20 yellow)
