Saurian brandy bottle

The "powder horn" bottles used in TOS and DS9 were originally commemorative whiskey bottles from the George Dickel Distillery in Tennessee, produced in 1964. (Star Trek Encyclopedia 2nd ed., p. 431; Star Trek: The Original Series 365, p. 45)

Quark often had bottles resembling Saurian brandy on his shelves in his bar on Deep Space 9.

In a line cut from "The Die is Cast", Vice Admiral Toddman noted to Julian Bashir that he was "in trouble", because the Admiral had bet two cases of Saurian brandy that he was going to win the Carrington Award that year. Toddman told Bashir: "You lost, which means I lost. And I don't like to lose." (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Companion - A Series Guide and Script Library)

The same Saurian brandy bottle that appeared on TOS would resurface in a 1971 episode of the Desilu/Paramount series "Mission: Impossible" entitled, "The Missile". In a move that had to be an intentional homage to Star Trek, the director prominently placed it in frame next to Leonard Nimoy.
