Screw the extra-terrestrial stuff.
The Lunar New Year is just about here, and the grocery stores are full of gift boxes of whiskey and other liquors. I'm a sucker for fancy packaging and big boxes I don't need, so I was checking out the selection this evening. Most of the more popular brands were represented (ie. Johnny Walker, Glenfiddich, Suntori, etc). This one in particular caught my eye and distinguished itself from the rest as a "Product of World." I reckon that's a very globalized way of looking at product origin. It's quite fair to everyone really. I imagine the residents of Burundi are oftentimes pissed at never seeing "Product of Burundi" on bottles of whiskey. Well the marketers of "Special Reserve Deluxe" have solved that problem and created a product which they can happily market everywhere without angering anyone (besides those customers who actually want to know which country their whiskey was made in). They needn't worry about potential nationalistic antagonism determining customer buying patterns. Everyone (excluding aliens who may prefer the extra-terrestrial stuff) can proudly buy and display bottles of "Special Reserve Deluxe" knowing it comes from the best damned liquor producing planet in the solar system.
