Unlike SG clubs, nobody gives 2 hoots if its a green label or blue label johnny walker, if its a moet or a cristal, or if its the number of drinks and bottles you have on your table. Smile, pluck up your courage and talk to these thai chicks and you will realise that they are very friendly people. No need for flashy bottles 
P.S. I actually hate the johnny walkers in BKK, it is horrible to drink. If you are a regular drinker, stick to the black or blue or a hennesy... Trust me  |
Im not a skill fisherman who can fish pooying, but in order to impress those "sao sao" what's on your table is big deal to them. In comparison between blue label and champagne, I think blue label, wins any time. You don't see blue label selling at those disco don't you? In duty free, blue label cost about 10K baht, and if my memory doesn't fail me, I don't remember that discos in SG selling blue label. Even tasty cordon bleu can't fight with blue label. So if you're drinking a blue label, esspecially at these clubs along RCA or Thong Lor, I'm sure you will be surrounded by those sao sao, but again you still need you £100 sgd to pay for the corkage, "nam pao" and ice.

Hennessy or cognac is not popular among the youngsters in Thailand. I always see them drink Johnnie Walker or Chivas in pubs and disco. Sometimes 100pipers.... Maybe most entertainment joints dun sell cognac, brandy....

His last sentences about the whiskey speaks all bro.
Thai prefers whiskey over brandy anytime, unless they mix with those farangs.
There's once I went to my friend house, who dad is retired military officer. Inside his house, there's number of boxes of cordon bleu and of course JW. Instead of opening the cordon bleu, he offers me black label. Only after telling him that actually cordon bleu doesn't need to drink with plain water and taste very nice, but after a glass, he stick to his black and let me enjoy the cordon bleu. At the end of the day, I got to bring back the balance of the cordon bleu and enjoy at home, and best of all, it's FOC, even my gf doesn't really like brandy.
I think now majority of the joint selling brandy, but it less popular to the Thais and maybe only "thanachart" purchase them. RCA SLIM, selling them for 3k baht while Riverside, only selling at 2K baht for a liter of Martell VSOP. Best of all, they do sell cordon bleu, at 300 baht per glass. Maybe due to lots of farang infested at this pubs along the riverside.

Took ton!! But my stomach still weak, need plain water and ice to drink these whiskey, unless single malt whiskey; e.g: Macallan 18 years or any high end whiskey like blue label.
