Only recognise 2 of them and Seagrams I seem to recall as some pretty hateful stuff, not that it has been sold here for many years. I have a feeling the old Seagrams company owned one of the last two Aussie whiskey distilleries before the lights went out about 15 years and that was Gilt Edge. GE doesn't bring back supa fond memories, one of the few I've had that tasted better coming up than going down.

Seems they only sold the brands, not any production facilities. Half a billion for some labels..... Thats pretty decent.
