Description
Limited Edition 80th Anniversary VE Day Whisky
To commemorate the heroic actions of the UK and indeed all Allied forces involved in the Second World War we have commissioned this numbered Limited Edition Blended Scotch Whisky, we use Whyte and Mackay.
Only 80 will be produced and each bottle will be numbered. As you can imagine, people will always want a specific number, if we can accommodate that we will, but is by no means guaranteed. We have added a text box below for you to add your preferred number, please just list order of preference, ie 15, 63, 24 etc.
If these numbers have already been sold, you will receive the next available number, please appreciate that the obvious numbers will have gone really quickly 🙁
But alas, you will still have a limited bottle and one of the 80.
We will be donating bottle 01, 45 and 80 to charity events so that they can be auctioned off for charities
VE Day – Victory in Europe, 8 May 1945
Victory in Europe Day – VE Day – marks one of the most significant moments in modern history. On 8 May 1945, after nearly six years of devastating conflict, Nazi Germany formally surrendered to the Allied Forces, bringing the Second World War in Europe to a close. The streets of Britain erupted in celebration as millions of men, women and children came together in a moment of collective relief, pride and unbridled joy. From Trafalgar Square to the smallest village green, the British people celebrated the sacrifice and courage of the generation that had refused to bow to tyranny.
This Limited Edition VE Day Whisky is crafted to honour that extraordinary moment in history. With only 80 bottles ever produced, it serves as a tangible tribute to the eighty years that have passed since that momentous day – and to the veterans, service personnel and civilians whose bravery and resilience made victory possible.
About the VE Day Whisky
This exquisite commemorative VE Day Whisky is produced using Whyte and Mackay’s renowned blended Scotch whisky. Whyte and Mackay has been crafting exceptional Scotch whisky since 1844, drawing on a heritage of over 175 years of expertise. Their signature maturation process – which involves marrying the whiskies together before finishing in specially selected sherry casks – results in a whisky of remarkable smoothness, depth of flavour and character. Rich notes of dried fruit, vanilla oak and warming spice make this a whisky that truly lives up to its commemorative status.
Each bottle is individually presented and can be laser engraved with a personalised message of your choice, making it a truly unique keepsake. Whether you choose a name, a service number, a regiment, or a heartfelt dedication, our precision engraving ensures every bottle tells its own story.
A Genuine Collector’s Item
With only 80 bottles produced worldwide, this Limited Edition VE Day Whisky is a genuine collector’s piece. The number 80 was chosen deliberately to mark the 80th anniversary of VE Day in 2025 – a powerful symbolic connection between the quantity and the occasion. Once sold, these bottles cannot be replaced. For military collectors, history enthusiasts, whisky aficionados and those with a family connection to the Second World War, this is an extraordinarily rare opportunity to own a piece of living history.
Bottles 01, 45 and 80 have been reserved for charity auction, supporting military causes close to our hearts at Pronto Images. Every bottle purchased helps mark this historic milestone in a meaningful way.

VE Day – 8 May 1945 – represents one of the most significant turning points in modern history. Across Britain and the Allied nations, people took to the streets in celebration as news spread that Nazi Germany had surrendered. Church bells rang out, strangers embraced, and communities that had endured years of hardship, rationing and fear finally allowed themselves to breathe again. Eighty years on, that spirit of relief, unity and gratitude for those who fought for freedom remains as powerful as ever.
The precision laser engraving offered by Pronto Images transforms each bottle into a truly personal keepsake. You might choose to engrave the name of a loved one who served, a specific regiment or unit, a service number, or a meaningful date. Every detail is completed using state-of-the-art equipment by our experienced in-house team, ensuring a crisp, lasting finish that does justice to the occasion. A bottle of this VE Day Whisky engraved with a personal dedication makes a remarkable gift for Remembrance events, family reunions or landmark anniversaries.
If you are purchasing as a gift, we ship in premium packaging that requires no additional wrapping. The presentation box not only protects the bottle during transit but also adds to the sense of occasion when the gift is received. It is ready to give exactly as it arrives.
Because only 80 bottles were produced and many are already reserved, we strongly recommend placing your order early to avoid disappointment. Once these bottles are gone, this commemorative edition will never be reproduced. Secure your personally numbered bottle today and own a piece of British history that will be treasured for generations to come.
How We Personalise Your VE Day Whisky Bottle
At Pronto Images, personalisation is at the heart of everything we do. When you order your Limited Edition VE Day Whisky, our skilled team will laser engrave your chosen text directly onto the bottle with exceptional precision. The result is a permanent, professional inscription that will not fade, peel or wear away over time – unlike adhesive labels or printed alternatives.
We use state-of-the-art laser engraving technology, calibrated specifically for glass surfaces, to achieve a clean and beautifully defined finish. Whether you choose a single line of text, a full name and date, or a longer dedication, every character is engraved with the same care and attention to detail. You can personalise your bottle with a veteran’s name, their regiment, their service number, a favourite motto or a heartfelt message – the choice is entirely yours.
Our team will confirm your engraving text with you before work begins, giving you complete peace of mind that your order will be exactly as you imagined. If you have any questions about character limits, font styles or what works best on the bottle, our friendly team is happy to advise.

We ship using tracked delivery services to ensure your order arrives safely and on time.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I choose the bottle number? Yes, you can state a preferred number when placing your order. Simply add your preferred numbers in order of preference (for example, 15, 45, 72) in the text field provided. We will do our best to accommodate your request, but because numbers are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis, we cannot guarantee a specific number. If your preferred numbers have been taken, you will receive the next available one.
How long does engraving take? Our engraving team typically completes orders within 2–3 working days. If you need your order by a specific date – for example, for a birthday, Remembrance event or regimental dinner – please mention this at the time of ordering and we will do our best to accommodate you. Express turnaround may be available; contact us for details.
Can I see a proof before the engraving is done? For text-based engravings, we can provide a digital proof on request. Just note this in your order and our team will get in touch before work begins. We want you to be completely happy with the finished result.
Is this suitable as a gift for someone who does not drink whisky? Absolutely. Many customers purchase this bottle primarily as a commemorative keepsake or collector’s item rather than to drink. The presentation box, the numbered certificate and the engraved dedication all make it a meaningful gift regardless of the recipient’s relationship with whisky.
The Significance of the 80th Anniversary
Eighty years is a remarkable milestone. The 80th anniversary of VE Day falls in 2025, and it is one of the last major anniversaries at which surviving veterans of the Second World War may be present. This makes commemorating 2025 particularly poignant and important. By marking this moment with a numbered Limited Edition VE Day Whisky, you are not only celebrating the Allied victory but also paying tribute to the generation that secured it – a generation of extraordinary courage, sacrifice and resilience.
At Pronto Images, we are honoured to play a small part in keeping this memory alive. Every bottle engraved and every name inscribed is a quiet act of remembrance, ensuring that the stories and sacrifices of 1939–1945 are passed down to the generations that follow.
