  • Buchanan’s Scotch 

Buchanan’s Blended Scotch Whisky honors Hispanic Heritage Month with the introduction of “What Glory We Are,” the brand’s new national advertising campaign that celebrates the unique duality of the Hispanic American experience as 100% Hispanic and 100% American. Created by agency Crispin Porter Bogusky’s (CPB) distributed talent network in North America, the new campaign unites those who embody the spirit of the 200%, by celebrating those who live the best of both worlds. From energizing video spots to vibrant out of home creative, we are introduced to a Hispanic American cast (dubbed the 200%ers) embracing their cultural experiences, perspective and self-expression through food, music, sports, traditions and more.Notable 200%ers include Gold medal Olympian Jasmine Camacho-Quinn who sparked a national discussion this summer on her identity, specifically on what it meant to be 100% Hispanic and 100% American. As Jasmine’s story is a shared experience for many families here in the U.S., Buchanan’s is committed to spotlighting and celebrating the Hispanic American community by sharing their unique stories and raising a glass to those living a 200% life – united as bigger, more authentic and more flavorful.To bring the campaign to life and toast to the diversity and uniqueness within all Hispanic American communities, Buchanan’s intentionally featured real, everyday people across different creative fields along with brand partners who are living life at 200%, including: Brenda Equihua, Elvy Perez, Manuel Mendez,Bembona, Ernesto Macias , Yolanda Baez, Carlos Arroyo, Sonia Guiñansaca. Beyond the new creative work, Buchanan’s will continue to unite those keeping it 200% and living the best of worlds by fueling local communities and doubling down on their giveback efforts. Through partnerships with non-profit organizations that are working to uplift and feed communities, and collaborations to cultivate a more inclusive creative culture, Buchanan’s will continue to support and amplify the diverse voices of the Hispanic American community.
