J&B Rare Blended Scotch

I’m not expecting anything crazy, but it’s always good to build a frame of reference. In this case, it’s blended scotch. The nose is sweet and lightly fragrant with some light peat, juicy pears and red apples, light malt, vanilla and some corn (spirit). The palate is sweet and light with light peat, malt vanilla, pear, corn spirit and a little cayenne pepper on the back of the palate. The finish is medium in length with sweet vanilla and a hint of peat hanging on with a tingling of cayenne pepper. For a standard blended whiskey, this one actually surpassed my expectations. It’s just interesting enough to enjoy sipping. A solid budget blended scotch.

Demasiado gusto a alcohol, opaca los sentidos

The craftsmanship of blending for everyday drinking. Just enough peat, light lemon and honey, some creamy nuttiness on top.

Light peat that blends well with the malt
