    I got a mini bottle of this recently and I've decided to write a review for it. Because why not? I've seen those famous videos online of White and Mackay's somewhat "colourful" master blender, and I admit… read more

    Sultanas & raisins on the nose and a hint of vanilla way back. Chewy sweetness on the palate, soft rounded and kind. Long finish spices cracking out at the end.

  • Whyte and Mackay Blended Scotch Whisky - Whyte and Mackay "special"

    This is W&M's answer to the already swamped market of standard blended Whisky under 8 year old. This is often the one you see in pubs, bars and clubs and is often the one that can be found in supermarkets… read more

    According to Richard Paterson – aka The Nose – this premium blend contains whiskies from 30 to 36 years of age. Hence it is not cheap. I saw it recently in the UK for around £150. The colour reveals the… read more

    The first thing that strikes you about The Thirteen is the rounded quality of the nose. It's gently unobtrusive but inviting, and exceptionally harmonious. The defining characteristic is a sweetness, but… read more

  • Whyte and Mackay Blended Scotch Whisky - Rough but a Good addition

    This is not a smooth whisky or a whisky to buy to enjoy the nose. I would say it has a rough taste and you feel a slight burn as you drnk and swallow it, but this is what makes it enjoyable to drink. I… read more

    13 year old is indeed a weird age for a blend. We usually find those aged 10 or 12. When asked about this, Richard Paterson, Master Blender of W&M , replied that after blending malts of at least 12 years… read more
