JOHNSTONE'S M. P.

PURE MALT WHISKIES.

WILLIAM GRANT & SONE, LTD., THE GLENFIDDICH DISTILLERY, DUFFTOWN, N‚B... ·

"OUR ANALYSES of these WHISKIES indicate that the Statements made in regard to lbem are honest-that is to say, that they are PURE MALT WHEKIES distilled in the Tot Still. Moreover, the evidence of the palate is in favour of the statement that they are fully matured. The flavour, while malty and rich, is "soft." A festure in the analytical results was the amount of Ethers. The amount of Ethers repratenfe a maximum quantity for Whisky. It may be remarked also that acidity of these Whiskies was practically nil. These Whiskies aro well adapted for SPECIAL DIETETIC PURPOSES."
