Competition No.1
(solved)

Dear minibottle collector friend,

this was the competition No.1 at www.MINIBOTTLES.com and you had
the great chance to win up to 10 full minibottles out of my list of doubles.
The competition No.1 is over because it was solved on 2001-10-24!
On the following page(s) you'll see a puzzled picture.
Write me in detail what one will see if the puzzle is solved - the first one
with the correct picture description (not only the brand of the bottle!)
will win this competition No.1 and will get the up to 10 minibottle(s).
To make it easier for you the puzzle will have less pieces every month:
[Aug.:2500], [Sept.:400], [Oct.:100], [Nov.:25], [Dec.:16]
but also every month you can win some minibottle(s) less:
[Aug.:10], [Sept.:7], [Oct.:4], [Nov.:2], [Dec.:1].
Are you ready? Then click here to start with the whisky puzzle ...

It is a bottle of Cutty Sark (obvious) in front of a sailing ship which is cutting through the ocean. Included below and to the left of the bottle are the words "Scotland's Best" and handwriting which is really some hard to make out. Also included in the picture is the phrase "100% Scotch Whiskies 86 Proof" but again the number could be 80 as it is also hard to make out.
Hope this is enough info for you.
