INVERNESS CREAM

SCOTCH WHISKY Created and bottled in the Highland, Capital from the Cream of Highland Whitkiet It is of interest to note that the most recent endorsement of the high quality of Inverness Cream was made in 1965 when from a large and varied field of blended whiskies, the product was recognised by trade experts, in the award of a diploma for its excellence, There are many who have never tasted Highland Whisky and many others have been prejudiced through drinking inferior brands. If you have not yet sampled Inverness Cream, enquire for and obtain a supply, as only then will you fully realise what a delightful beverage rare old Highland’ Whisky is.
