Millions of

Gallons maturing-

Older and better than ever

Never was your White Horse as good or as old as it is to-day. Years ago, exceptionally heavy stocks of the finest whiskies were laid down to anticipate sales which the quality would justify. These stocks are now fully mustured. The result is that WHITE HORSE is now older and better than ever before, excellent as it was in 1932 and preced ́ng years.

This advance in quality and age will be maintained. White Horse is now the equivalent of a fine liqueur.
