"You're picking winners well today--| see if you can tell this whisky "

"It's White Horse, of course-

I could tell it blindfold”

The rare and subtle character of White Horse sets it apart from any other whisky. You can · tell it by its exquisite bouquet alone. But it is the perfect blending of fragrance with mell- owness and smoothness which makes 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.
