"It's a gift"

said Johnnie Walker

"I mean that literally," he added. "This is one of the cheerfully decora- ted Christmas cases of Johnnie Walker. But balancing is a gift too, and the balancing feat I'm particularly proud of is the perfect balance I achieve between the contrasting qualities at many matured single whiskies when I'm blending Johnnie Walker. So this Christmas, give your friends Johnnie Walker in these special Christmas. cases. They contain 3, 6 or ra bottles, and your dealer stocks them ready for sending."
