Braveheart/Scottish Alcohol Comercial
I saw a new comercial (several times now) and it intersplices a Braveheart-esque highlander and a modern guy running.
I was wondering if anyone had seen it and (if so) what ya'll think.
I forgot the actual brand-> signifying a good unsuccessful comercial-> one that is memorable, but not brand driven (one can't remember the brand it was for).

I have seen it and can't remember the brand either.

Everything in excess! To enjoy the flavor of life take big bites. Moderation is for monks.

Actually, the receipe for Drambuie itself reportedly dates from the Jacobite era -- reportedly Prince Charles Edward Stuart himself (Bonnie Prince Charlie) gave the receipe for Drambuie to a loyal subject, John MacKinnon, as a reward for helping Charlie escape after Culloden. That's the way the legend goes, anyway.

I personally like the Indonesian drink called a "su-su": Drambuie and ice-cold milk or half-and-half. It used to be a very popular drink at the Jakarta, Indonesia Highland Games, especially with the pipers from Western Australia!

Ahhh yes...saw the commercial. Just what I needed....made in my ancestor's homeland of Skye.
Used to end my day with a small glass of Drambuie over one cube of ice...sweet stuff.
The ice cube was to remind me that I was a gentleman drinker, not an alcoholic....right...
Suppose I should than the Drambuie folks for helping me finally crawl through the doors of AA.
Dang that was good stuff!
Ahhh yes, a little euphoric recall going on....
