“How's that?”
"Excellent! It's White Horse-
I could tell it blindfold.”
No other whisky combines so rare a fragrance with such mellow smoothness; no other is quite so soft, so
round, so genial. Perfect blending and slow maturing
have made White Horse Whisky the equal of a fine
Liqueur.
The millions of gallons of finest Scotch whisky matured and maturing ensure that the quality of White Horse never varies.
