Bourbon in the Movies

Green-label Blanton's makes an appearance in John Wick 2. Appropriate since he's in Europe during that scene. Like Steve mentioned above, I had to smile when my wife nudged me, pointed at the screen, and said, "Blanton's!"

I was just going to post the same thing about Sneaky Pete.  We started watching that last night before buffering got the best of us.  Saw enough to see the PVW 20 appearance though.

That's not the first time Michters has had a product placement on Billions

Yeah, IIRC the Rye and 20 year bourbon made appearances last year. 

 

They also had one of the best whiskey "commercials" in recent memory when Wendy came home to find Chuck sipping Kavalan.

 

Love that show!

I think I'd go the Tara Knowels route from SOA

I was watching The Wolverine today and noticed Logan drinking some Hibiki on a Japanese business man's private plane.

I went to see Logan yesterday with my son and he was drinking from a bottle of Jim Beam white label.

Saw it last week and noticed the same. There were other moments he was drinking whiskey but I couldn't make out those labels.

Same here.  The first time he was drinking bourbon from the bottle, it was clearly JB white label.  I couldn't make out what he was drinking the second time.

Drinking JB White from the bottle. No wonder he's some sort of mutant.

Blanton's makes yet another appearance in the closing scenes of the latest NCIS NOLA. 

I wonder of Blanton's is paying a product placement fee to them.     It seems the only identifiable spirit brand I can remember showing up here, and it shows up fairly often.

It's pretty bad when my wife blurts out "Blantons!!" before I even have a chance to say anything

Somebody has to be in a very high tax bracket to afford a bottle of that.

ROFL :lol:

 

My wife and I were watching too. You know my wife Gary. I didn't even get the chance to say anything. When that bottle came out, I looked over at her and was getting ready to say Blanton's when she gave me "the  look" and said with a sigh, "I know." :P

No!!!! <_< 

 

Inside joke that I reckon I'll have to explain. :huh: Gary is Vosgar. We're friends and live only a few minutes apart. Needless to say, we've been out together with our wives a time or two, and know each other just a little. Our wonderful wives accept our fascination with bourbon, and sometimes even contribute. :) Maybe begrudgingly so, but sumpin' beats nuttin'. ;)

Ha-Ha-Ha!    I believe there's a message in there somewhere...     What that may be is lost on me; but I do think it's in there ....somewhere.

Blantpn's bottle is quite unique, so I guess someone recognizing it isn't a big shock, even if they aren't a Bourbonian. 

I saw an ad a few weex ago for some cologne (or perfume?) that came in a bottle (albeit much smaller than a 750) that was clearly a riff on the same theme.    I don't recall the brand; but perhaps some other member can help with that.

Saw Logan a couple days ago. Noticed the Jim Beam that was already mentioned but also sitting on the shelf in Mexico was a bottle of Evan Williams Green. If those are the only two left available to Logan in 2029 it is a bleak future indeed.

I thought you guys were crazy when I didn't see it by the end of the episode only to realize it was a double episode.
