Scotty does love a wee dram

[Jack Daw]

I'll wager that depends on the scotch.

Oh, I'm not arguing against that, but you'd be surprised at how many.

After a bit more searching i believe that the shot of Scotty used as the basis of the poster probably came from the sames episode as this pic:



As can be seen the liquid is very pale and the glass is propably what we, in this space time continuum , would refer to as a wine glass.

[Jack Daw]

You must be right, DK. His hair is combed the same way.

The distillery from which this whisky came from is in Linlithgow, Central Scotland, but as Scotty has not been born yet this particular brand of whisky will not be created for a good few decades.

Loved it the moment I saw it! Now if only I could get myself a bottle...

Well the real Scotty WAS Irish, was he not? At least the name suggests that.. a little hidden humour there with the green reference.

Actually James Doohan was a first generation Canadian, born of Irish immigrant parents. He also went ashore at Juno Beach on D-Day, and later went through pilot training as an observation pilot. Despite not being in the RCAF, he was known as 'the 'raziest pilot in the Canadian Air Force'.

Fascinating article. Thank you for pointing us to it.
