2017 Ultimate Spirits Challenge

Black Bottle Blended Scotch Whisky (Scotland), 40% abv, $39.99

88
Very Good,
Strong Recommendation

Tasting Note:

Rich and slightly smoky on the nose; it is bolstered by underlying hints of roasted cashew, burnt orange peel, and smoked meat. Easy-going, vanillin, and super smooth with a wisp of peat smoke coming through before finishing with stone fruits and honey.
