JMRketing Bollocks

Had to laugh to day when I saw the most recent marketing bollocks from John Mark and Robbo - amazing how he was never know as Robbo when he worked at Macallan!!! Anyway fair play to them they are taking on America and the company that was started by three pals will no doubt do very well. http://http://www.marketwire.com/mw/release_html_b1?release_id=88737

I mean come on surely no one believes this tripe - the only reason Remy Amerique is looking at them is because they are the American distributors for the Edrington group in the USA. Oh and if you think JMR is just three boys that started a whisky company then you really have been sucked in. Fair play to them I really like there whiskies especially the smooth sweet one (or what ever its called) although have only tried the straight Irish one and not the Irish / Scotish mix. That was another heap of marketing bollocks that they fed us that they were the first people to mix whgisky from two countries - come on most people have been doing it for years - how much Macallan was shipped to Japan to be added to many Japanese blends - maybe Robbo missed that when he was working there!!!! Now that he is a free agent (yeah right) I am sure he doesnt have time to remember all these thinks.

But to hell with it for what there whiskies are - easy drinking whiskies I think that there pretty bloody good and thats what is all about after all.
