I bought Dads a bottle of Maker's Mark for Fathers Day. Cost a pretty penny (imported - obviously)
I thought it would be an interesting change for him, being a bourbon and being sweeter then average. And he LOVES unusual packaging. He adored my first ever adult boyfriend because he brought round some Sapporo (Japanese lager that at the time came in a can where you removed the whole top as you opened it). So I figured the wax seal would tickle him.
Fast forward a few months and I asked him what he thought of it.
He didn't even remember it.
Mum backed me up - the one with the red wax on it?
Nope.
No memory at all.
Ah well, I'll know next time that a bottle of Tesco Value Blended Whisky will be appreciated in the same way!
