A blended whisky brings together spirit from more than one whisky style or distillery to create a balanced, approachable character. At 48.0% ABV, this bottle is likely to show more intensity and texture than many standard-strength blends.
For a novice drinker, that higher strength can mean a fuller flavour delivery and a warmer finish. It may be enjoyable neat in small sips, or with a little water to soften the alcohol and open up the aromas.
