FRENCH COGNAC BRANDY versus
BRITISH !
Q. Who are the large purchasers of BRITISH BRANDY ?
The TRADE.
Q. Who buys it for consumption? NOT ONE in a THOUSAND.
This FACT alone should open the eyes of the üblic to the
principal purpose fur which it is so extensively used; viz.—the
ADULTERATION of FOREIGN BRANDY. Hence the great
Importance of purchasing FOREIGN BRANDY of such houses
alone as offer a reasonable assurance of its genuineness. This con-
sideration induces JOHN STEVENS, of 15, BROAD-STREET,
BLOOMSBURY, to call the pnblic attention to the facts :
First—That he neither Buys nor Sells British Brandy.
Second—That he neither Buys nor Sells any inferior description
of Foreign Brandy:
Third—That the only Brandy he does Sell or Buy, is the very
Choicest Old Foreign Cognac and Champagne Brandies.
