Bought a 1.75 L bottle of this today for $30. My last purchase of it was 3-4 years ago. White Horse has been around for decades and has had the reputation of a hefty dose of malt (50%) in the blend and a fairly strong backbone of peat smoke--say on par with Teachers Highland Cream. I would say that it is a very solid blend with malt, honey, and biscuit notes. However, if you are seeking heavy peat you may be disappointed. There is much less peat in this bottle than my last purchase a few years ago. To me that's not absolutely a bad thing. It is still a very well balanced and VERY affordable blend suitable as a "jug" Scotch for easy sipping or mixing. I am simply saying the blend seems to have evolved over the years. Perhaps this was for economy; or, perhaps it was for evolving modern tastes.
