THE ANALYTICAL SANITARY INSTITUTION, 54, Holborn-viaduct, E. C., London, Aug. 18, 1879, report on the ‘* Lorne Highland Whis- key ” of Messrs. Greenlees Brothers:—

**We have visited the bottling stores of Messrs. Greenlees Brothers, at Gresham- buildings, london, and have selected from the vats, samples of their Lorne Highland Whis- key, and have subjected them to careful ex- amination and analysis. The samples were pale, showing their freedom from added color- ing matter, very fragrant, mellow and of pleasant flavor ; in fact, they possessed all th characteristics of pure and well-matured Scotch Whiskey of the first qualtiy.”
