Without wanting to diminish the efficacy of placing a six-storey tall facsimile of the product in an ad, I don’t see why Jameson, in its tagline, would be welcoming me, or any other passerby, to their family. It implies a pretty low bar for fearlessness and might even have Cosa Nostra undertones. “Care to join us?” would be more like it, wouldn’t it?

But much better is the tagline Jameson has used previously: “Fear a bit less, live a bit more.”

I recall from decades ago a US J&B Scotch ad that read:

ingle ells, ingle ells…

It’s just not Christmas without J&B.
