ABV 21: Blended Scotch Whisky Tasting

We’re tasting five scotch whisky brands, all but one are 12-year old blended scotch. One lonely one is a 36-month old blended scotch known as Scoresby’s. We’re hoping to be able to detect a bottom shelf brand from those that you’ll pay upwards of USD $30 to buy. The brands on the table include: Johnnie Walker Black, Chivas Regal, Dewar’s “White Label,” Cutty Sark and Scoresby’s Very Rare Whisky.

    So glad Chivas came in first. My friend bought me a Litre bottle of it from duty free in Los Angeles, it's the BEST!

    Yeah, Chivas is a good buy.

    you should do a chocolate liqueur tasting like with Godiva, Truffles, ect

    That's funny, because that's what we were going to do instead, but we didn't have enough brands locally to work with yet so we did scotch.

    I'm surprised Chivas ranked so high, it's the only blended scotch I've tried and think it tastes like crap. It made me not want to try another blended, I'm all about the single malts.

    I think everyone has a dramatically different opinion of their favorite blended scotch with one thing in common: single malts rule. I've had others say Chivas is the best blended others, not so much.

    Interesting :-) Might check that one out, although just like you, I'm moving to single malts.

    Hopefully you wil lreview Green Label someday (video review).

    Cheers

    Ah yes, Green label. Someday that will be mine too. Scotch just tends to be a bit pricy to buy in bulk :)
