Title:
Victoria Vat
Description:
Vintage Dewar’s ”Victoria Vat” blended Scotch whisky bottle (dark amber/brown glass) with heavily worn/torn front paper label. Front label text includes: ”DEWAR’S” and large red ”Victoria Vat”, ”Blended Scotch Whisky”, ”Product of Scotland”, and ”Specially Selected and Blended by John Dewar & Sons Ltd”. Bottle has a tan/gold spring-cap style closure and a neck strip/label repeatedly printed ”DEWAR”. The back of the bottle shows embossed glass text including ”DEWAR’S” and ”NE PLUS ULTRA” (motto), and a U.S. importer label reading ”SCHENLEY IMPORT CORPORATION, NEW YORK, N.Y.”. Bottle size marking on front appears ”4/5” indicating 4/5 quart (a common U.S. pre-metric spirits size). No modern UPC/EAN barcode is visible on the bottle or labels (typical for mid-20th century bottlings). Likely a U.S.-imported bottling from the 1950s era (often cited/sold as ”bottled 1950s” / circa early 1950s for this spring-cap 4/5 quart format).
