    Ballantines Finest Blended Scotch Whisky (700ml)
    Dumbarton, SCOTLAND
    $54. 99
    Bottle
    $659.88 Dozen
    ABV: 40%

    George Ballantine, the founder of Ballantine's came from a farming family in the Scottish Borders. He established a grocers shop in Cowgate, Edinburgh in 1827, eventually extending his business into wines and spirits. The founders son, also named George, set up in Argyll Street, Glasgow, in 1872 as a whisky, wine and cigar merchant, with many export interests, especially the promotion of their Old Glenlivet and Talisker Fine Malt brands. In 1903 the family business was granted a Royal Warrant and was recorded as "transacting an immense trade in supplying wines and spirits to families of distinction all over Scotland and in many parts of England and Ireland." The company was subsequently sold, however the new owners had similar success, establishing solid markets in the United States and elsewhere. The rest is history...

    The Malt and Grain whiskies used to produce Ballantine’s Finest are all aged for more than three years. The original flavour, complexity and refinement comes from more than 50 single malt flavours. The unmistakable Ballantine's flavour is dependent on these 50 single malts, 4 single grains and in particular the fingerprint malts from Miltonduff and Glenburgie. No one single component dominates. The Ballantines range also includes: Ballantine's Gold Seal, a smooth and complex 12 years old whisky; Ballantine's 17 year old, a super premium brand with a deep complex flavour which is regarded as THE Scotch whisky by consumers in the Far East and Ballantine's 30 year old, a rare and exclusive blend of Scotland's finest malts.

    Tasting note: Bright gold. Attractive scents of breakfast cereals, husk and caramel. Super soft throughout, as grains and cocoa feature on the light to medium bodied palate, drying towards the finish which is clean, a little flabby and very gently warming. Although this latest bottling seems sweeter than previous batches, it's still one of the picks of current blends if you’re looking for a lighter style at an entry level price point. 40% Alc./Vol.

    Other reviews… Nose: Perfumy. Very fragrant smokiness. Palate: Soft and light. Silky, oily peaty. A therapeutically medicinal relaxant. Finish: Lemon-honey. Some late sweeetness. Late surge of gentle warmth. Comment: Very gentle, but a precise clarity of flavours. Drink while listening to Vivaldi. Rating: 85 - www.whiskymag.comsize>

    Medium golden color. Caramel, roasted nuts and old rose aromas with a good dose of hot vapor. A brisk entry leads to a dryish somewhat bitter, light to medium-bodied palate with mild toffee, light peatiness, and a sharp turn of white pepper. Finishes quickly with a pepper and caramel fade. Thin and uninteresting. 40% Alc./Vol.

    Dewar's White Label Blended Scotch Whisky (700ml)
    SCOTLAND
    $58. 99
    Bottle
    $707.88 Dozen
    ABV: 40%

    Dewar’s, for one reason or another has become extremely popular amongst American whisky imbibers. Perhaps it is their preference for lighter tasting beers that extends into their tastes for Scotch? The sixth best-selling scotch in the world, John Dewar was the first to bottle whisky with his own name on the label as a guarantee of quality (circa 1846.) Dewar was also the first to move away from stoneware jars and kegs, to begin selling the product in bottles. As this bought the cost of the product down significantly, the practise soon became the custom. After Dewar died in 1880, his two sons Thomas & John set off abroad, successfully signing up 27 new agencies greatly expanding the business.

    In 1898, the brothers returned to build the Aberfeldy distillery, which to this day remains the primary source of the Dewars blend. Perhaps Dewars most curious claim to fame, however, occurred in the same year when the company hired Thomas Edison to shoot the worlds first ever moving picture advertisement for a commercial product. It featured, not surprisingly, dancing kilted Scots.

    This blend consists of up to 40 different single malt and grain whiskies. Light in colour and body, elegant with aromas and flavours of new oak dominating over a sweet, heathery background. Clean, faintly spicy, slightly drying finish. Dewar’s is a distinctive though subtle drink. As an introduction to Scotch, its unassuming character makes it ideal.

    Other reviews... Nose: New leather upholstery. Polished oak. Beeswax. Hint of pine. Palate: Firm body. Fresh, crisp,toast. Very spicy. Ginger-dusted melon. Finish: Vanilla. Oak. Slightly piney again. Resiny. Comment: Decisive, cleansing and refreshing. A civilised apertif before oysters Rockefeller and a New York strip steak. Rating: 8/10 -  Michael Jackson, whiskymag.com

    Grants Blended Scotch Whisky (700ml)
    Banffshire, SCOTLAND
    $49. 99
    Bottle
    $599.88 Dozen
    ABV: 40%

    Formerly known as the 'Family Reserve', Grant's have now re-branded this as 'Triple Wood'.

    William Grant began distilling in 1887, with the intention of supplying the then flourishing trade. When his sole distributer collapsed, Grant was left with no outlet for continueing sales. Grant urgently needed to invent and market his own brand. In desperation, he passed the challenge onto his son-in-law who, so the story goes, made over five hundred calls to various firms around the country. He managed to sell one dozen bottles! Business gradually improved however, and the original Grants we know today was suitably marketed under the "Steadfast" label. The product has since enhanced its image to cater for numerous international markets, including the adoption of its striking triangular bottle.

    Tasting Notes: Aromas include oatmeal biscuit, hints of dried fruits and peat as well as notes of honey. A fresh, clean and light entry has sustained interest, dovetailing into a balanced, delicately spicy, medium dry mid palate with a flourish of raisin and smoke to the cereal and honey flavours. Add this to your shortlist of daily drams. Much improved since our last tasting. 40% Alc./Vol.

    Previous review: [October 2000] A lighter style blend, similar in weight and character to Teacher’s. The nose is plump, oily and semi-sweet with notes of honey, oatmeal, and biscuit. The influences of Balvenie and Glenfiddich (which are also produced by William Grant and Sons) are evident. Subtle flavours of almond, toffee, chocolate and vanilla make for everyday drinking 40% alc./vol.

    $659.88 Dozen
    ABV: 40%

    The blending of whiskies is a practise aimed at creating a product of broad appeal. It was for this purpose that Justerni & Brooks developed their now famous J&B Rare for the American market. By using a high proportion of the softer Lowland malts, J&B achieved a classic in its genre which remains one of the biggest selling whiskies on the American market.

    Over 40 different malt and grain whiskies are matured and then married together for an unusually long time. Distilled, blended & bottled in Scotland.

    Tasting note: [2012 bottling] Pale straw colour. Nosing reveals toasty cereals, vanilla wafer and a whisper of peat. Aeration releases more cocoa. Light to medium bodied. Exhibits a lovely malt/grain balance with gentle spices and a fluff of peat adding depth at mid palate. Finishes crisp, clean and beautifully dry with good persistence. In its latest incarnation, one of the best value blends on the market.

    Johnnie Walker Red Label Blended Scotch Whisky (700ml)
    Kilmarnock, SCOTLAND
    $49. 99
    Bottle
    $599.88 Dozen
    ABV: 40%

    The world's number one selling blended Scotch and the preferred choice of whisky lovers every where. Johnnie Walker Red Label is a full-flavoured spirit that is a blend of Highland malt and Lowland grain whiskies. Red Label was originally created in 1909 for the new Scotch drinker who was inclined to mix whisky with ice, water, soda or in a variety of cocktails. By widening the range of whiskies used in his father's Old Highland Whisky, Alexander Walker developed Red Label as a smoother and lighter alternative - this was a break from the traditional deeply flavoured, full bodied Scotch whiskies of the past and was considered a more approachable drink. By 1920, Johnnie Walker Red Label had become the first truly global drinks brand, sold in over 120 countries. In 1933, the company was granted a Royal Warrant to supply Scotch to King George V, and the company has remained an official purveyor to the British Royal Household ever since. In 1996, Johnnie Walker Red Label won the Gold Medal at the International Wine and Spirits Competition, having previously picked up Silver Medals over three consecutive years. It has also consistently garnered Gold and Grand Gold Medals at the Monde Selection Awards.

    Tasting note: Brilliant, bright gold appearance. Aromas offer a peaty top note hovering over sweet, fat, oily grains. The palate possesses good concentration with the peat laced sweet grains and gentle spices contributing to a fat, rich, oily mouth feel. Aftertaste of vanilla and sweet cereals with the peat re-emerging. Technically faultless and an achievement given how much of this stuff is churned out. But this bottling (and they do vary) is lacking freshness being quite sweet and clunky throughout. In fact, it's almost a little out of balance. Some fresh oak required in the mix? 40% Alc./Vol.

    Maclean’s Nose Blended Scotch Whisky (700ml)
    SCOTLAND
    $89. 99
    Bottle
    $1079.88 Dozen
    ABV: 46%

    Ralfy's Whisky of the Year for 2024. "Top coastal blend" - whiskyfun.com

    A malt-heavy blend from the team at Adelphi, named after a rocky outcrop not far from the Ardnamurchan distillery (not Charles MacLean's own nose, although he must have had something to do with its creation). Twenty one ex-bourbon Lowland grain hogsheads form a 'blank canvas' to which forty casks of ex-bourbon Ardnamurchan and sixteen ex-sherry casks of the same are added. It’s then dressed with five casks of Campbeltown malt. The significant presence of ex-sherry casks and zero filtration add up to a blend with considerable depth, but the defining character is from the West Coast peated component. This almost tastes like Ardnamurchan 'lite' with the sweet smokey notes supported by an understated fruitiness. The finish intensifies on a peppery note, concluding ashy, fresh and medium long. While it lacks some of the oily richness found in famous rivals like Johnnie Black, Maclean's Nose is so tasty that it's closer to a blended malt than a blended whisky in the mass-produced, contemporary sense. In this case, the slightly higher price is justified. Awarded Whisky of the Year 2024 by the popular youtube blogger, Ralfy. 46% Alc./Vol.

    Other reviews... This is brand new, but I've heard it's only due to be heading out of their warehouse towards the end of April. I first used to believe this baby was a much appropriate tribute to Charles MacLean's own nose, but I just saw that 'Maclean's Nose' was the name of a place near Ardnamurchan, and that of a salmon farm as well. The label's been made out of barley draff, which surely is a first, but I've heard the cattle was starting to complain, as that draff is usually used as food for them. You cannot please everyone, I suppose. This shelters 70% malt, so in my book, it's a quasi-malt. Colour: straw. Nose: I am not certain there is some Ardnamurchan in there, but that's totally possible, if not obvious. It's very close to 'nature', to the sea, to the draff (there), to grist, to breads, to lemons, to damp oatcakes, with a small fermentary side in the background, which we always enjoy. Then rather earth, root vegetables, wild carrots, williams pears… You say grain whisky? What grain whisky? Mouth: much smokier on the palate, with this perfect acridness that we always enjoy as well, lemon zests, salt, oysters, sauvignon blanc, then once again these bready, fermentary notes. But the peat's carrying the flag, clearly. Finish: long, clean, natural, with no further changes, bread, peat, lemon, brine, oysters… Comments: quite bizarrely, this baby also reminds me of some of the very best new Japanese malts, in their peated forms. Hey, it's a compliment! Top coastal blend - or indeed quasi-malt. 88 points - whiskyfun.com

    ...It’s one of the best affordable blends you can grab and enjoy right now and I hope, when this inevitably runs out, another batch will be hastily prepared and ushered forward in the spirit of keen replenishment. - dramface.com

    ...Nose: Blossom honey, and the delicate florals of honeysuckle and chamomile. Cedarwood and thyme. Underneath, malted loaf. With time, caramel waffles and vanilla, then beef stock and burnt toast. Palate: Medium. Salted caramel on baked green apples, and some nutmeg and cinnamon. Shredded wheat cereal. The savoury stock note returns, backed by stewed plums. Finish: Medium, on apple core and raisins. Comment: A dependable blend with lots to like. - whiskymag.com

    From Edinburgh, Scotland, McCallums is a bartenders standard for mixing any drink that involves Scotch. Its full flavour allows for versatility. A large percentage of the McCallums blend relies on Cragganmore color>(see entry), a highly regarded Speyside Single Malt, providing McCallums with its round mouthfeel and slightly peaty character.
    The whisky has a particularly strong following in Australasia.

    Nomad Outland Blended Whisky (700ml)
    $89. 99
    Bottle
    $1079.88 Dozen
    ABV: 41.3%
    A collaborative blended whisky from master distiller, Richard Paterson (of Whyte & Mackay & Dalmore fame) and Antonio Flores from the Spanish Sherry producer, Gonzalez Byass. Technically this can't be labelled as Scotch, as the whisky hasn't been completely matured in Scotland, instead it's brought to Spain from Scotland for a final period in Sherry butts. This means the sherry casks are “fresher,” and more active on the whisky than they'd typically be, having not dried out in transit. Maturation is also accelerated in the warm Jerez climate.

    Created from a selection of over 30 malt and grain whiskies aged between 5 and 8 years, Paterson and Flores experimented with different Sherry casks, including Oloroso and Fino, but ultimately decided on Pedro Ximénez. After three years in Sherry butts in Scotland, the finishing in Jerez last for another 12 months.

    Tasting note: Deeply coloured. Aromas are rich and redolent of orange zest, hazelnut chocolate, fruit slice, dates, vanilla and caramel. Follows on with delicious, juicy fruit cake flavours augmented by sweet spices (nutmeg, clove?). Dried fruits and cinnamon through the finish, with the PX almost overwhelming, countered at the last by citrus zest and vanillan oak. An opulent, sweet-styled blend. 41.3% Alc./Vol.

    $623.88 Dozen
    ABV: 40%

    William Teacher started work in a cotton mill aged seven; in 1830 he was employed by a small grocer in Glasgow. After marrying the owner’s daughter, he managed to arrange a liquor licence and opened his first 'dram shop'. These were well maintained public houses selling reasonable spirits. Twenty years later, Teacher was officially recognised as the largest licence holder in Glasgow. The Scotch Whisky bearing his name remains today blended & bottled in Scotland. While all blended Scotch Whiskies are made from either malt and/or grain spirit, Teacher's Highland Cream has an exceptionally high malt content - at least 45%. This is a feature which contributes to its unique character and flavour. The two core components are Glendronach and Ardmore. Glendronach is an exceptional sherry cask Speyside malt, produced in one of Scotland's oldest working distilleries. The heart of Teacher's 'rugged' flavour comes from Ardmore.

    Other reviews... Nose: Oily, Fudge-like. Palate: Big, rounded, smooth. Full of crunchy maltiness. To drink this whisky is like biting into peanut brittle. Then toffee. Then licorice flavours. Finish: Rooty, oaky, smoky, these dry flavours providing a perfect balance. Comment: Malty, even creamy, but never cloying. Big and sustaining. The whisky world's answer to Kendal Mint Cake.

    Perth, SCOTLAND
    $52. 99
    Bottle
    $635.88 Dozen
    ABV: 40%

    Blended and bottled by the Gloag family, whose business was founded in 1800. The Famous Grouse is testimony to the unsurpassed blending experience of six generations of this family, which accounts for the consistent quality and smooth character of the blend. Like so many early whisky companies, Matthew Gloag & Son Ltd., has its origins in the early 19th century, when the founder established himself as a grocer and wine merchant in Perth. Matthew Gloag bought malt whiskies from distilleries around Scotland and built up a reputation for his cellars.

    Finest malt whiskies, such as The Macallan and Highland Park, are married with exceptional grain whiskies for an unusually long period in fully seasoned oak casks to create the Famous Grouse blend. The product takes its name from the Red Grouse, a native wild game bird of Scotland.

    Other reviews…Remains sexy, elegant and refined with a stunning opening on the palate. But can’t help feeling that caramel has recently replaced some of the crisper notes, especially on the finish.

    SCOTLAND
    $68. 99
    Bottle
    $827.88 Dozen
    ABV: 40%

    This is the new look for the whisky formerly known as "The Naked Grouse" which has transitioned to a new design and 100% recyclable packaging. The brand began with a grain whisky component, but in response to the popularity of single malts, it was decided to make it an 'all malt' in 2017. Highland Park, Glenturret, Glenrothes and Macallan are / were the core ingredients. The final composition was matured in first-fill and refill American and European oak casks, then finished in first-fill oloroso Sherry butts for a further six months.

    Tasting note: Deep amber-gold. Strong sherry input brings whisps of sulphur / struck match and gingery warmth, with a drying, nutty, muesli-like edge to the malt. A little thin on entry, building concentration and spice through the middle; Biscuity and crisp, with light dried fruits, bitter chocolate and some peel freshness carrying the finish. Starts like a Glenrothes and ends like young Macallan. 40% Alc./Vol.

    Adelphi Private Stock Reserve Limited Release Peated Blended Scotch Whisky (700ml)
    SCOTLAND
    $120. 00
    Bottle
    $1440.00 Dozen
    ABV: 57.6%

    Although this is “only a blend,” the price is very fair especially given it's bottled at 57.6%. Aged in a combination of Bourbon and Sherry casks, the total outturn was 906 bottles. The team at malt-review.com were certainly impressed...

    Other reviews... If you gave me this blind, I don’t think I would have had it down as a blend, and I do think there may be a fairly high malt content. Adelphi also bottle a 40% ABV private reserve blend for around £20, which is by all accounts kept in a Solera system. Is this a higher strength version of that? Perhaps with a bit more peated malt in this mix? I’m not sure. Although the components are unknown, Speyside, Islay, and Campbeltown are the names that crop up time and again in my research. Quite frankly, it doesn’t really matter. All I can say is this is superb, and one of the best blended whiskies I have tasted. Blended whisky can be truly excellent when done right, and not to a super tight budget like many of the readily available low-cost offerings that are more commonplace, and which give the entire sector a bad name.... More of this please Adelphi! - malt-review.com

    Glasgow, SCOTLAND
    $69. 99
    Bottle
    $839.88 Dozen
    ABV: 40%

    Dating back as far as 1879, the Black Bottle blend, created by the Aberdeen family business, Gordon Graham & Co, has enjoyed incredible success (especially in Scotland). This must largely be due to the talent of its creators in using the very best Islay malt in an otherwise already well-balanced blend of grain whiskies.

    The Black Bottle label is derived from its original bottle design in black German glass with the bottle shape echoing the traditional pot whisky still. In 1914, following the outbreak of war, production was switched to green glass as it is to be found today. After many ups and downs over the course of the 20th century, Black Bottle is today owned by Burn Stewart. The NAS blended edition has just arrived in Australia.

    Tasting notes: Bright gold with a straw hue. First nosings detect moderate notes of sweet toasty grains and mild peat. The aromas become sweeter after aeration as vanilla and caramel come to the fore. Light entry leads to a medium bodied, grain focused palate with an undercurrent of sweet, sooty peat. Soft warming spirit with some distinct spices at the finish. Reasonable balance. Concludes a little short with a subtle cocoa, vanilla aftertaste. For those who enjoy a smoke, but only every now and then. 40% Alc./Vol.

    Winner: Best Scotch Blended Limited Release WWA 2019.

    With roots going back to 1864, the Black Bull Blend was the very first 100-proof blend in whisky history. Duncan Taylor create this with an unusually high malt-to-grain ratio and continue to bottle the range at a robust ABV.

    Tasting note: A bold blend finished for a period of 16 months in ex-rum casks from Brazil, Barbados, Jamaica, Guatemala, Guadeloupe and Fiji. Bright gold. Fumes of alcohol and grassy, rum-like aromas lead into a soft, full bodied whisky; well balanced with light rum sugars at the finish and hints of molasses cake, raw sugar and cinnamon. Not overly sweet, but the rum pick up may be too much for some. Add water and you could mistake this for rum. 50% Alc./Vol.

    What the WWA said... "Nose of biscuit-like pastry and fresh black cherries. A little sour, some nail varnish and quite alcoholic. The palate has lemon drops, honey, icing sugar and a melt in your mouth texture. Warming finish with more vanilla, shortbread fingers and a pleasing subtlety."

    Notes from Duncan Taylor... Rich and delightful aroma with tropical notes of coconut and passion fruit and crisp candy floss. Grassy flavours with notes of grapefruit and apples covered with a creamy sweetness and topped with a hint of mint. The finish offers more fruit and mint balanced with a hint of vanilla oakiness.

    SCOTLAND
    $69. 99
    Bottle
    $839.88 Dozen
    ABV: 50%
    A whisky inspired by the hardy breed of highland cattle, the Kyloe (pronounced Kahy-loh), known to survive in the bitter windswept highlands and islands of Scotland. Blended with a high ratio of malt to grain and bottled at a hearty 50% abv, without the use of chill filtration, just like it’s namesake, this promises a robust, powerful dram.

    Black Bull brand manager Andrew Shand comments “With the new release, Kyloe, we set out to create a very approachable whisky with a great flavour profile, which is great to drink on its own or mixed with other ingredients in a cocktail. As with all of the current range, we have stuck to the original formula created in 1864, that being bottled at 50% abv (100 US proof), using a high malt content in the blend, and using bourbon wood with a portion of sherry wood, which, with the Kyloe release, produces a rich and fruity flavour profile, with lots of oak, malt and vanilla.”

    Other reviews… Kyloe is the old Scots name for the famous hairy, horned breed of Highland beef cattle, better known in Scotland as a Heilan coo. This bright NAS whisky has aromas of fresh orange, lemon, grapefruit, and light muscovado sugar. It is soft and sweet to drink, with lemon sherbet notes, some fruity piquancy, and rich butterscotch, with some peppermint creeping in on the finish.

    More-or-less unknown in Australia, but a very old Scotch Whisky brand, named for one of the first Scots to master blending. Catto's connections with the founders of the P&O and White Star shipping lines helped to ensure his was the blend of choice aboard the most glamorous cruise liners of the 1900s. Now the Australian wholesaler behind Catto's has decided to quit stocks. It's a blend that would normally be selling closer to $70 in Australia. We're offering it BELOW NORMAL COST to subscribers. A great opportunity to stock up on a quality everyday drinker!

    Tasting note: Bright brassy gold. Dryish aromas of grain store and pencil shavings with air contact adding hints of weet bix, vanilla wafer and balsa wood. A medium bodied blend with an enjoyable combination of oily malt, light cocoa, trace peat and lively spice. Good texture and mid-palate depth. Concludes dry, vibrant, grainy, clean. Quite elegant. Hard not to like if lighter blends are your thing. 40% Alc./Vol.

    "Currently one of my regular blends to drink at home. Astonishingly old fashioned with a perfect accent on clean Speyside and crisp grain". 92 points - Jim Murray

    A value-for-money line from Catto's that includes unpeated Highland and Speyside malts with Lowland grain whisky. This is the antithesis of sweeter, heavy-handed blends like Black Douglas, Vat 69 or Johnnie Red. Instead you get a light, drier style at a price that makes for quaffing excellence!

    Tasting note: Brilliant gold. Shy and delicate with bready-cereal-like notes and nuances of vanilla wafer, cocoa and digestif biscuit. Light-to-medium bodied with a mildly oily, malty sweetness, a sprightly, warming finish, rounding out crisp, grainy and medium long. Great balance. While the nose is muted, this drier-styled blend has everything going for it as an aperitif or everyday drinker. 40% Alc./Vol.

    Other reviews... Currently one of my regular blends to drink at home. Astonishingly old fashioned with a perfect accent on clean Speyside and crisp grain. In the last year or so it has taken on a sublime sparkle on the nose and palate. An absolutely masterful whisky which both refreshes and relaxes. 92 points - Jim Murrays Whisky Bible 2017
    Cutty Sark Blended Scotch Whisky (700ml)
    SCOTLAND
    $39. 99
    Bottle
    $479.88 Dozen
    ABV: 40%

    At a lunch with a well-known Scottish artist, James McBey, Francis Berry raised the question of a name for a new blend of Whisky he was developing. McBey suggested 'Cutty Sark’, inspired by the famous clipper, built in Scotland in 1869 and the fastest ship of her day. The couplet from Robert Burns's Tam O'Shanter seemed to endorse the concept further: "Whene'r to drink you are inclined/ Or Cutty Sarks run in your mind..." Berry embraced the title and McBey designed and painted the original label, which is still used today.

    Cutty Sark originated a new style of Whisky. Blended to suit the American palate, which prefers a lighter style, the most notable influence in Cutty Sark is from the inclusion of select Speyside malts. American oak casks, most of which have held sherry, are then set aside to bring out the characteristic flavour and aroma of each whisky in the Cutty Sark blend, and to gently impart colour during the 4-10 year maturation. (No caramel is added to enhance the colour.) Quality shines through in its pale golden colour, fragrant with hints of vanilla and oak. Cutty Sark is clean and fresh on the palate with hints of smoky sweetness and a clean, crisp finish. Excellent value. 40%alc./vol.

    Other reviews... Nose: Very faint seaweed. Estery. Fruity. Palate: Very light-bodied, but with interesting flavours. Coconut. Pistachio nuts. Rosewater. Finish: Hessian, cedar and oak. Salt, very definitely. Seems to lift in the finish. Comment: The flavours are tightly combined. I imagine exploring them late at night in a vaguely disreputable bar in the tropics. Perhaps it's the name.

    Cutty Sark Prohibition Edition Blended Scotch Whisky (700ml)
    SCOTLAND
    $79. 99
    Bottle
    $959.88 Dozen
    ABV: 50%
    Crafted as a salute to the notorious Captain William McCoy, who smuggled whisky into America during the Prohibition era of the 1920s. McCoy’s impeccable reputation for fairness and dealing only in the finest unadulterated spirits gave rise to Cutty Sark being referred to as “The Real McCoy”. Bottled at a higher 50% ABV (100 Proof – USA Measure) compared to the regular Cutty Sark, this is also a “small batch” run and includes high quality single malts and top-quality grain whiskies. Hand-selected American oak casks add subtle signature flavours of vanilla and citrus.

    Other reviews... This has to be one of the highlights of the whisky year. 91 points
    - Jim Murray's Whisky Bible 2018

    ...The Real McCoy! It's said that during Prohibition Bill McCoy serviced the better speakeasies with proper Cutty Sark; hence the name. If this is a recreation of what they might have been drinking back then, you can see why they kept fighting over it. This is another bold, earthy, smoky blend with oily, industrial notes. There's crabapple, smoke, bitter lemon, grapefruit, and even black currant. It would seem blended whisky is where it's at right now! Great stuff.

    Daniel Crawford's Red Star Old Scotch Whisky (1 Pt. 6 Fl. Oz.)
    SCOTLAND
    $399. 00
    Bottle
    $4788.00 Dozen
    Look at this delightful old bottling from Glasgow based blenders, Daniel Crawford. Originally available in the Old Matured and Red Star variants, these whiskies were bottled solely for the export trade through the latter part of the 20th century. The label was purchased by the Distillers Company Ltd. in 1944. This bottle appears to be from the 1950s. One only from a private collection. Some ware and tear to the label but overall very good condition for its age.

    A whisky antique reportedly from the late 1950s, packaged in an old style 'slim-line' bottle. Some ware to the front label as pictured. One only from a private collection.

    Dewar’s, for one reason or another has become extremely popular among American whisky imbibers. Perhaps it is their preference for lighter tasting beers that extends into their tastes for Scotch? Once the sixth best-selling scotch in the world, John Dewar was the first to bottle whisky with his own name on the label as a guarantee of quality (circa 1846.) Dewar was also the first to move away from stoneware jars and kegs, to begin selling the product in bottles. As this bought the cost of the product down significantly, the practise soon became the custom. After Dewar died in 1880, his two sons Thomas & John set off abroad, successfully signing up 27 new agencies greatly expanding the business.

    In 1898, the brothers returned to build the Aberfeldy distillery, which to this day remains the primary source of the Dewars blend. Perhaps Dewars most curious claim to fame, however, occurred in the same year when the company hired Thomas Edison to shoot the world's first ever moving picture advertisement for a commercial product. It featured, not surprisingly, dancing kilted Scots.

    Other reviews... The King of Scots brand, along with three casks of whisky, was acquired fully by Fred Laing Snr in 1948, at which point he established the company Douglas Laing & Co. He set about acquiring stocks from distilleries as fillings for his new blend – not an easy task in post-war Scotland. King of Scots really ‘took off’ during the 1970s when Douglas Laing & Co. was asked to provide a glitzy blended Scotch for the duty free market, to appeal to wealthy Asian travellers. Today, whiskies used to make the King of Scots blend are hand-picked by the company’s chairman and master blender Fred Laing. Each bottle is decorated with Scotland’s Lion Rampant, which was used by the Kings of Scotland for centuries. A three-year-old blend with notes of toffee, spices and citrus on the nose. At first, the palate is said to be sweet, with ripe fruits, toffee and vanilla, developing into a sweet and spicy finish. Non-chill-filtered, the whisky is bottled at 40% abv. - scotchwhisky.com

    Grant's is one of the better of the lower tier blends available in Australia. This special travel exclusive ups the ante being bottled at 46.3% and non-chill filtered to give it a greater depth of flavour intensity and texture. According to Grant's, expect "...an initially dry citrusy note softening to reveal vanilla sweetness, banana fruitiness and rich maltiness." Big one litre format.

    Tasting note: Bright amber gold. A big bouquet by any measure. Fruit yoghurt, chocolate box and vanilla wafer are refreshed by hints of citrus zest. Exposure brings aromas of muesli / cereal to the fore. Superb mouthfeel with a creamy, malt-heavy entry followed by hints of fruit toast, vanilla, granita biscuits and hints of orange zest in the finish. Concludes oily, with buzzing spices in the aftertaste. Body, texture and length combine in a daily dram that has just about everything. 46.3% Alc./Vol.

    The influences of Balvenie and Glenfiddich (also produced by William Grant and Sons) are the basis for Grant's blended whiskies. The company has recently expanded its range with three new releases offering exceptional value for money and unusual depth of flavour by blended whisky standards. In fact, in a blind line up you'd be forgiven for thinking these were single malts.

    Like most distilleries with history, Grant's have accrued some colourful stories. Soon after William Grant began distilling in 1887 his sole distributor collapsed, and Grant was left with no outlet for continuing sales. He urgently needed to invent and market his own brand. In desperation, he passed the challenge onto his son-in-law, who, so the story goes, made over five hundred calls to various firms around the country. He managed to sell one dozen bottles! Business gradually improved, and the original Grants we know today was suitably marketed under the "Steadfast" label. The product enhanced its image to cater for numerous international markets, including the adoption of its striking triangular bottle. Its been rumoured that the whisky had favour amongst several heavy drinking Hollywood actors, purely on account of the bottle shape. If they dropped it on stage during rehearsals, it was guaranteed not to roll too far!

    The freedom to try new things is one of the joys of being a family owned company with five generations of whisky making experience. In 2001, Grant’s became the first blended Scotch whisky to be finished in sherry casks. Grant’s Master Blender handpicks Spanish Oloroso sherry casks before filling them with already aged whisky which is then left for up to four months to acquire the rich flavours of "...dried fruit, warm spice and sweet honey".

    Tasting note: Pale gold with a pale straw hue. Good intensity on the nose with honeyed, toasted malt mingling with the dried fruits. Becomes lighter with aeration with vanilla entering. Appealing. Light entry leads into a malty mid palate burst, countered by soft spices. The Sherry influence is more subdued here than the nose suggests. A dry biscuity finish is followed by a somewhat underwhelming aftertaste. A delicious example nonetheless, and probably with enough oomph to please most single malt snobs. 40% Alc./Vol.

    Grant's Cask Edition No.1 is reputedly the only Scotch whisky to be finished in barrels that have previously held ale. Master Blender, Brian Kinsman, fills casks with Edinburgh Ale for 30 days then replaces it with aged Grant’s whisky. The blend then mellows for up to four months, picking up "...creaminess and silky malt flavours".

    Tasting note: Pale gold appearance with a pale straw hue. Moderate aromas offer notes of sweet grains, dusty cocoa and old cigar box. Unusual. Exceptionally soft and pure throughout, the palate delivers medium dry flavours that are difficult to pin down, with dried fruit / cocoa notes combining with almost chewy grains into the aftertaste. Fascinating and different, but not ground breaking, yet given the more than fair pricing, this should be a no brainer buy for whisky completionists. 40% Alc./Vol.

    Safe, reliable and consistent, as well as one of the oldest of Scotch whisky brands, Haig Gold label is an unpretentious blend with a high malt content (around 40%) and an ease of drinking that's made it one of the best-selling Scotch whiskies in the world. Its popularity declined briefly in the 1970s, but anyone who's tasted it recently agrees that current owners, Diageo, have reinvigorated this old standard significantly. Jim Murray for one. Review below. Expect a hint of pepper from the malt as it takes hold in your mouth followed by a whisper of peat on the finish.

    Tasting note: Deep polished copper. Nice lift with spicy cinnamon oak, vanilla, sweet malt, toasty cereals and dilute honeycomb. Good depth. Medium to full bodied. A semi sweet, juicy, textural style with bracing spices and gentle oiliness to finish. Medium length. Reminiscent of Black Douglas from a decade ago. Suits mixing. 40% Alc./Vol.

    "...one of the best young blends around; very old fashioned and a real cracker. " - Jim Murray

    Founded in 1964, Inver House Distillers operate lesser known single malt distilleries like Balblair, Balmenach, Knockdhu, Pulteney and Speyburn. Since been taken over by Thai-based drinks giant, ThaiBev, several longstanding brands have dropped off the portfolio. 'Green Plaid' is a very old label that deserves a longer life. This refreshing and youthful whisky has a lightness and a style reminiscent of the entry level Cutty Sark blends - with a touch of smoke for good measure.

    Tasting notes: Medium to light gold in colour. Opens borderline neutral developing moderately fragrant, clean, grainy accents including vanilla, toasted cereals and frail peat. Entry is light, medium-sweet gaining malt input, subdued fruitiness and budding spices through the middle stages. Ends crisp, vibrant, medium long with an attractive combination of cereals, toffee apple and trace lanolin. If you enjoy Ballantines or J&B, you should find pleasant similarities here. 40% alc./vol.

    Other reviews... Soft strains of Bowmore-style young peat.... remains youthful, and the smoke is still there, but the overall complexity as the crisp grains enter is worth a fanfare; more kindergarten smoke as the barley remains fresh and mouthwatering. Has kept true to style but is now one of the best young blends around; very old fashioned and a real cracker. 90 points -  Jim Murray's Whisky Bible

    'Plaid' is the traditional Scottish name for the heavy woollen tartan material used to make the famous kilt. It's thought that Green Plaid was worn by the first Lord of the Isles, a 12th Century Viking Warrior called Somerled. The tartan design was later incorporated into the Inver House whisky labels.

    The world's number one selling blended Scotch and the preferred choice of whisky lovers every where. Johnnie Walker Red Label is a full-flavoured spirit that is a blend of Highland malt and Lowland grain whiskies. Red Label was originally created in 1909 for the new Scotch drinker who was inclined to mix whisky with ice, water, soda or in a variety of cocktails. By widening the range of whiskies used in his father's Old Highland Whisky, Alexander Walker developed Red Label as a smoother and lighter alternative - this was a break from the traditional deeply flavoured, full bodied Scotch whiskies of the past and was considered a more approachable drink. By 1920, Johnnie Walker Red Label had become the first truly global drinks brand, sold in over 120 countries. In 1933, the company was granted a Royal Warrant to supply Scotch to King George V, and the company has remained an official purveyor to the British Royal Household ever since. In 1996, Johnnie Walker Red Label won the Gold Medal at the International Wine and Spirits Competition, having previously picked up Silver Medals over three consecutive years. It has also consistently garnered Gold and Grand Gold Medals at the Monde Selection Awards.

    Tasting note: Brilliant, bright gold appearance. Aromas offer a peaty top note hovering over sweet, fat, oily grains. The palate possesses good concentration with the peat laced sweet grains and gentle spices contributing to a fat, rich, oily mouth feel. Aftertaste of vanilla and sweet cereals with the peat re-emerging. Technically faultless and an achievement given how much of this stuff is churned out. But this bottling (and they do vary) is lacking freshness being quite sweet and clunky throughout. In fact, it's almost a little out of balance. Some fresh oak required in the mix? 40% Alc./Vol.
