Vat 69


I never took the time to research whether the brand ever existed, just assumed it was something that was invented for the story line. In a recent viewing of "Twelve O'Clock High", released in 1949, Gregory Peck can be seen pouring a glass of Vat 69 near the beginning of the movie in his meeting with Gen. Pritchard.

I've had it a few times. Ironically I bought it at a US military base. It's decent affordable scotch whiskey.
