Teacher's Highland Cream was a blended Scotch whisky from the Glasgow firm of William Teacher & Sons, and this advertisement leans on the "Know your Scotch" campaign theme, asking the reader to learn the differences between whiskies much as one would learn about wine. Blended Scotch, mixing malt and grain whiskies from many distilleries, was the style that took the category worldwide in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and brands like Teacher's competed hard for shelf space and loyalty through print advertising. Worth noticing is how the copy casts whisky as a connoisseur's subject, a sign of how liquor marketing sought to lend respectability to the bottle.
