Squadron 303 is distilled in Cambridgeshire, England, from King Edward potatoes and presented in a flask-like bottle produced in Yorkshire. It is produced with a single distillation and bottled without filtration.

The name of this English potato vodka remembers the Battle of Britain's 303 Squadron of Polish pilots fighting alongside the RAF. They were renowned for their combat skills in the air and their daily celebration of victory over death with toasts of potato moonshine, chilled during flight. A vintage hip flask, once belonging to one of the squadron leaders inspired a group of friends to create this vodka.
