Fresh from a successful legal battle with American alcohol giant Jack Daniels, Greg Hemphill and
Ford Kiernan are making an appearance at Glasgow's Crown Street Co-op with their spirits brand,
Jack & Victor. The duo will be at the Co-Op from 12pm - 3pm on Sunday 11 June to meet with fans
and sign bottles of Jack & Victor Blended Scotch Whisky and Still Gin in time for Father's Day the
following week (Sunday 18 June).
American whiskey producer Jack Daniels took issue with Jack & Victor's application to register the
brand name as a trademark, saying the name was too similar to its own and that consumers could
get confused between the two. However, after a hearing where Still Game co-creator and Jack &
Victor co-founder Greg Hemphill gave evidence that showed how synonymous the brand name was
with the show, the UK Intellectual Property Office ruled in the Scottish brand's favour.
