The name “Molotov cocktail” originated during the 1939-1940 Winter War between Finland and the Soviet Union. When Soviet foreign minister Vyacheslav Molotov claimed on radio broadcasts that Soviet bombing runs were actually humanitarian food deliveries for “starving Finns,” Finnish soldiers sarcastically dubbed Soviet incendiary bombs “Molotov bread baskets.” In response, they named their hand-held bottle firebombs “Molotov cocktails” – “a drink to go with his food parcels.”
These improvised weapons became symbols of Finnish resourcefulness and determination against overwhelming odds. The Finns even mass-produced these weapons in factories, creating a standardized design that proved remarkably effective against Soviet armor. The formal Finnish military term for these weapons was “polttopullo” (burn-bottle), though the nickname “Molotov cocktail” captured the world’s imagination and has endured to this day.
The Molotov Cocktail series represents Northern Tactics’ commitment to authentic Finnish tactical design. Like its historical namesake that represented Finnish resourcefulness, our Molotov Cocktail L delivers practical solutions for demanding conditions and discerning users.
