- I rewrote the page and used that website as a reference, just to keep things on the up and up :) --Fxer 17:43, 13 September 2005 (UTC)
Bottle redesign
editI believe the bottle shape was changed somewhere in 2004. Could we get some pictures of the old and new design, respectively? 85.72.173.16 23:45, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
Percent of single malts?
editDoes anyone know what percentage of the blend is comprised of the single malts? That would be a great bit if info to include, if we have a source.--Skylights76 (talk) 18:38, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

Incomplete References and Other Errors
edit- The reference to Christmas sales (3) is now a dead URL and unverifiable. Ref 11, certainly valid for the period 2012-13, may not be applicable here. These refs could be tried: [1]

- A preview of the references in the History section elicits a flag: Cite warning: Cite error: A
<ref>tag is missing the closing</ref>(see the help page). It talks about one of 75+ brands comprising more than 180 expressions. [4]
The article needs substantial remodelling to include relevant data. Charles Maclean's 2015 Coffee Table book is a great basis.[5]
