James Eadie's Trade Mark "X" 70cl Whisky
James Eadie's Trade Mark "X"
You might recognise the name James Eadie and Trade Mark "X" if you're a whisky history buff (or time traveller). Eadie began producing this expression all the way back in 1854, and trademarked the cross logo in 1877 - just a year after the Trade Mark Registration Act became a thing! Trade Mark "X" was produced until the late 1940s, then disappeared. However, the brand has been relaunched by Eadie's great-great-grandson, with a recipe that features 14 of the 16 whiskies that appeared in the original Trade Mark "X", including a couple of closed distilleries!
