Relaunched in 2013, Black Bottle Blended Scotch whisky now features a balanced mix of fruitiness and spice alongside the peaty Islay notes that the brand has been known for. This change in direction is a return to Black Bottle’s past, as it is said to have been inspired by what the whisky was like when it was made all the way back in 1879. This has also inspired the new old-style black glass bottle, which gave the whisky its name.
Nose
Fresh and floral with freshly-sawn oak aromas. Spicy with hints of smoke.
Palate
Silky, mellow and fruity with balanced smoky peaty flavours, then sweet oak and heather honey.
Finish
Soft, elegantly spicy, nutmeg, pepper and a gentle lingering smokiness.
