Fettercairn 12 Year Old

Nose: Sweet honey-like notes with a very small hint of clove or spice.

Taste: Less sweet than the nose suggests. Was expecting an overwhelming sweetness, but instead got muted marshmallow. A bit more spice than expected, but it's very balanced. No smoke or peat.

A delicious whisky that doesn't want to be the center of attention, but could get you into trouble with how drinkable it is. I'll be keeping my eyes open for a full-sized bottle.

#Whisky #SingleMaltScotch

There was a time when blended whisky was all the rage, especially in the US.
Nowadays, whisky aficionados are more keen towards single malts or single casks, if cask strength even better, but blended are still a strong part of the market: less expensive, easier to approach, great for mixology.
But with players like Compass Box or Douglas Laing things have been shaken up a bit.
What's your take on blended?
