James Buchanan's De Luxe Finest Blended Scotch Whisky, 1950s (75cl, 40%)

This is a 1950s bottling of James Buchanan's De Luxe, a blended Scotch whisky at 40% ABV, in a 75cl bottle. James Buchanan was born in Ontario in 1849 and came to Scotland to work for Charles Mackinlay & Co. In 1884 he began on his own account. The company merged with John Dewar & Sons in 1915 to form Buchanan-Dewar, and became part of DCL in 1925. Diageo, its modern successor, still produces the blends. The original Buchanan blend used Dalwhinnie, Clynelish and Glendullan.
