Keep Walking
August 13th, 2009
Having just delved in to the world of Scotch I haven’t really cut my tongue on single malts yet. But I DO know I like a good blended! Johnnie Walker Blue (of course) is my favorite but at home I settle for Black. I first tried Blue after buying a custom engraved bottle for my father two fathers days ago and this in when my interest was started.
This video (commercial?) for Johnnie Walker is absolutely awesome! It tells the story of the brand in an interesting way and it stars none other than Robert Carlyle!
When I first watched the video I thought to myself… “Why! I do say! Self! That looks like it may be filmed in Inverlochlarig, Pertshire, Scotland!” and at the end of the video it was confirmed!
Now if I could only subscribe to The Striding Man Society on their website I’d be a lot happier… Alas some do not test as thoroughly as I when making a site and their forms seem to be broken on every major browser!
UPDATE:Looks like someone’s filed some copyright claims to youtube and the video has been taken down
UPDATE #2 Dec 2009: It’s back! This time hosted on Johnnie’s own site!
