President whisky!

Hello whisky lovers!

I've heard from a friend about a whisky called "President", he said it is really good, but I can't find anything about it... do you guys know anything about it? I'm really willing to try new products and according to him that is a classic!

Please let me know what you know/think of it!

p.s: I'm in Colombia, if anyone know where can I find it here (I've tried a lot already :/) please let me know!

cheers!

President is usually sold under the name of MacDonald Greenlees who are owned by Diageo. I'd heard that it's only sold in South America as it's not one of their main brands.

President Scotch whisky was first registered in Brazil in 1944, then in Venezuela in 1955; subsequent trademarks for other markets followed in the late 1950s and 1960s, including Hong Kong and Japan. The word 'President' had been trademarked in the United Kingdom in 1906 (not for whisky) but it wasn't assigned to Macdonald Greenlees until 1965. President apparently replaced another Greenlees brand, Supreme Liqueur, which was withdrawn after the Second World War when a general prohibition was imposed on the use of the word 'liqueur' for whiskies following protests from liqueur producers.

President Scotch whisky is sold largely in Central and South America, but you can also find for sale online.

Hello whiskylovers,

I just bought this week the two last available bottles of the President Special reserve 12yo
at the store of van Wees in Amersfoort, the Netherlands.

Cheers
