    I imagine that someone high up had some sort of thing for cars and there you have it. For some reason I doubt that it was some democratic process of choosing the best package, but I could be wrong.

    I think I did read it was to get the Indian market interested in their premium Jim Beam whiskey. I see Jim Beam has put out a lot of decanters over the years, starting in the 50's I believe-but I am not sure they are worth much money these days, but they would be fun to collect!

    Same here, I also wasn't aware of that information. It's quite interesting to know.

    Now that's a guy who knew how to sell! I find it inspiring the way he did all that to get people more interested in his product. Quite clever, actually.

    It's obviously done to attract attention to the product but I think it's quite ridiculous.
