Double Peated Blended Whisky

Category: Blended Whisky

Date Tasted:
Country: Malaysia
Alcohol: 40%
Slivery straw color. Aromas and flavors of lemon curd and peat smoke, sourdough, grass clippings, and linen with a glycerous, bright, dry medium body and a tingling, subtle, medium-length finish displaying notes of honied malt, vanilla, and almond cookie and sugar cookie. A delicious peat-forward Whisky that is stellar on its own or in a complex cocktail.

There are two ways to define Blended Whisky.

An American Blended Whisky must contain a minimum of 20% straight whiskey, but the rest of the blend can be comprised of any category of whiskey and/or neutral grain spirit.

In Blended Whisky from Scotland, Ireland, or Japan, the product must be comprised of both single malt and single grain whiskies. Scotch and Irish Blended Whisky must be aged for a minimum of three years, and Irish Whisky alone can include pot still in its blend.
