REGARDING
JOHNSTONE'S M.P.
PURE MALT WHISKIES.
WILLIAM GRANT & SONS, LTD, THE GLENFIDDICH DISTILLERY, DUFFTOWN, NB.
"Our analyses of these Whiskies indicate that the statements made in regard to thom are honest-that is to say, that they are Pure Malt Whiskies distilled in the Pot Still. Moreover, the evidence of the palato is in favour of the statement that they are fully matured. The flavour, while malty and rich, is soft. A feature in the analytical resalts was the amount of Ethers. The amount of Ethers represents a maximum quantity for Whisky. It may be romarked also that acidity of theks Whiskies was practically ait, These Whiskies are well adapted for SPECIAL DIETETIC PURPOSES."
OBTAINABLE AT ALL THE WINE MERCHANTS.
