Does A Blend Like This Exist?

Hey there one and all, i'm after a blended whisky that probably doesnt exist, but i thought i would ask the Connosr faithful just in case it did somewhere!

First of all, some background. Some friends of mine are getting married towards the end of this year, and i want to get them something special to commemorate the occasion. Now she is of an Irish family, and he is of a Scottish family, and you may be able to see where i am going with this.

Is there any blends out there that contain both Irish and Scottish whisk(e)y? preferably one that i can get a decent bottle of that can be put on display (or drunk) to mark what is a special occasion for my friends?

As i say, it's a long shot, but worth asking all the same!

of course it exists :) it's the Bruichladdich Celtic Nations, a blend of Bruichladdich and Cooley, just hurry up and check if there's any left on the shelves! :)

Well, now that interbreeding Irish and Scotch is banned by the SWA, the Celtic Nations expression of Bruichladdich is even more attractive ... and would serve as a very special gift. But as an alternative, you could merely vat your own bottle, and with computer technology, print a very custom label for the wedding ! @lucadanna1985, it was really cool that you discovered this Celtic Nations bottle.

Guys, you've been a great help! Thanks for this, the Celtic Nations bottle would be pretty ideal, i'll probably order 2 bottles, just so i can make sure the gift i'm giving is good enough ;)
