This advertisement puts Booth's Finest Old Dry Gin in a cellar lined with barrels, a setting that stresses age, storage and craft rather than the glass itself. Booth's was a London gin house with roots in the eighteenth century, and British spirits makers of that era often leaned on this kind of imagery to suggest that their product was matured, carefully kept and worth the price. The barrels also point to the older tradition of cask storage, which many consumers associated with quality. Look closely at how the cellar is staged, since it tells you as much about the brand's sales pitch as the product does.
