Buchanan's Blended Scotch Whisky
Thanks for the photo! I can see about having it dated for you. Here's some background information which comes from Buchanan's parent company Diageo:
"In 1879, James Buchanan moved to London to work as a sales agent for another whisky firm. In 1884 he set up James Buchanan & Co.and set out to create the perfect blended Scotch Whisky - a blend which had the perfect balance of body and flavour and he used his name as a personal guarantee. As a result 'the Buchanan's blend' was born."
"James Buchanan earned his place among the most important people in the world of whisky - Dewar and Walker. Buchanan and Dewar merged companies in 1915. The following year, they became part of Distillers Company Limited (DCL) which had then become United Distillers & Vinters (UDV) in 1987. The brand is now owned by Diageo."
Variants of Buchanan's: Buchanan's Red Seal, Buchanan's Deluxe 12 year old, Buchanan's Special Reserve 18 year old. Top markets are Venezuela, United States, Mexico, Colombia. Buchanan's is very popular within the Latin community.
