It would have been funnier to have picked Gin. They missed a trick there.

🤣

I like whiskey 🤷🏻‍♀️

I don’t want flowers for Mother’s Day as my hay fever starts in March. Also, my neighbour loves a good whisky, not sure if the one in the advert would be suitable for her though.

AdoraBell · 15/03/2023 13:32

Actually, my neighbour wouldn’t touch that one, she likes a good aged singer malt, not blended.

It's a good ad. I hate flowers.

AdoraBell · 15/03/2023 13:34

Single, not a singer 🤦‍♀️

I like a good aged singer actually Wink

Even that bloody ad is sexist - women are not discerning enough to enjoy a good single malt!

Give me a 12 yo Lagavulin any day 🥃

So do I. I'm not a mum though.

PoppyFleur · 15/03/2023 13:47

It’s a good ad, communicates the point perfectly that flowers are not the only option!

GoodChat · 15/03/2023 13:50

What's the problem? It's a good ad.

MysteryBelle · 15/03/2023 13:57

It’s aimed at the ever growing trans women demographic.

MysteryBelle · 15/03/2023 13:58

😂

So only men drink whisky?

MollyRover · 15/03/2023 14:00

Came here to say I certainly wouldn't appreciate the blended variety, I'd be insulted 🤣

NotAnotherBathBomb · 15/03/2023 14:01

Where is the lie?

DrMarciaFieldstone · 15/03/2023 14:04

What’s wrong with this?

Trans women are women, not men, remember?

Peekingovertheparapet · 15/03/2023 14:05

They should have picked gin! And actually I’d like a nice bottle of gin for Mother’s Day. But they should also have picked a high end whisky. Mums are worth it!!

evtheria · 15/03/2023 14:05

I don't drink in general, really, though I like tequila BUT I do think it's nice that it wasn't gin.
The one time I met a whiskey expert, who flew all over the world for the job, it was a woman.

Sick of bloody ads about buying her pink gin...

handsoffate · 15/03/2023 14:06

Works for me. Dh knows to get single malt though…

Sunriseinwonderland · 15/03/2023 14:07

Mother's day has become a stupid free for all to advertise ridiculous things.
There are mother's day adverts from hardwear shops, shoe shops, clothes shops.
What happened to flowers and a card?

Knullrufs · 15/03/2023 14:07

Blended? Urgh. Fail.

Islay malt or don't bother next year.
