Object

Bottle of Johnny Walker Blue

A paired serving of Dewar's blended Scotch presented in low, heavy-bottomed rocks glasses: roughly 4–6 oz amber liquid over two or three clear ice cubes, beads of condensation collecting at the glass shoulders. The drinks are invoked as an off-screen bar order — imagined rather than fully shown — and function as a prop of presence: characters half-smile, exchange a glance, or let the joke land as if the glasses sit just out of frame.

Purpose

Alcoholic beverages intended for immediate consumption as mixed/served drinks (Scotch over ice).

Significance

Used as a comic, humanizing counterpoint to formal political maneuvering: the joke about ordering two Dewars punctures tension, reasserts Bartlet's private voice, and momentarily collapses distance between participants. The drinks operate more as social lubricant and tonal beat than as crucial plot hardware.
