Mad Libations
As a historian and dedicated follower of the show, I have always been intrigued by the amount of libations that Roger and the boys enjoy in the office while changing the world of advertising. Roger is a man who enjoys Stoli vodka. Don drinks Canadian Club and other rye whiskey. The cheap Campbell enjoyed J&B because they were clients, and recently has been mixing in Jameson. I believe that the type of spirit that each character drinks is a direct showcase into their personality, a topic that could be analyzed in very much detail.
In season 4 episode 3, Lane receives a bottle of whiskey from his father in London, whom he describes as being a connoisseur. The two drink and Don describes it as having "no bite", which leads me to believe it to be a single malt scotch. That bottle seems to be the kick-start for the liberating day that both ailing men need.
Can anyone help me to find out the type of whiskey that Lane's father sent? I originally was thinking it was from Scotland, which would be Macallan 30yr, or Glenmorangie Quinta Ruban or Lastana. Any other thoughts?
