206 sqn 75th anniversary whisky (1991)
 
curious to know if there are any other bottles out there or am I the only sad g!t to have kept hold of one.

Yep, still got one.

Every time I see it, it reminds me of the thoroughly unpleasant man who commanded the Sqn.

Still have 2 bottles of 206 Sqn Whiskey in the back of a cupboard in the kitchen. Not from the 75th though, it's from the batch that N cubed had bottled a couple of years before the disbandment.

Wasn't there a film made about you lot?


9-to-5? :D:ok::D

I have a bottle and a half left - not bad for a blend!

Oh, and thunderbird7, it was 924 Sqn, as seen on the Sqn auth sheets folder in flight planning at the time :ok:

MadMark!!! :mad:

Anyone remember which distillery it came from? I think it was one of the Speyside ones.

Never did make it to the end of the whiskey trail in one piece, despite several attempts!!!!

Better than having a section of the Football League named after 'us lot',
3rd Division South!:D:ok::D

Have vague memories that it was a blend provided by the father of one of the pilots who worked for a large distillers.

I recall that the whisky came from Gordon & McPhail, as did the Fincastle blends.

You design the label with them and they bottle it, label it, mark it up and pass it on to the discerning consumer.

Oh yes...still enjoying mine.

And....Push & Start...it's STILL whisky. NO "e"! I'm sure it was G&McP.

Good grief... yep I still have a bottle unopened! Bells I believe...

Tonks :)
