Established in 1879, Buchanan’s sought to satiate the demand for Scotch whisky in England by producing his own bottled blends. Today, the brand is known for its wide range of blended Scotch expressions procuring some of the best distillates from distilleries all across Scotland and meticulously marrying them to create unique flavors that made it a darling of critics, spirits rating organizations, and the general drinking public.
Making its debut in 2018, the Buchanan’s Select 15 Year Blended Malt Scotch Whisky is the first-ever blended malt expression to permanently join the brand’s core range. Made from a selection of single malts from the heart of Scotland that have been aged for at least 15 years, each batch of this Scotch is carefully blended under the supervision of master blender Craig Wallace in order to achieve the desired flavor and texture before being brought to proof with pure water and finally bottled.
Each sip of this whisky greets you with a pleasing aroma of dried wildflowers, plum preserves, malt cereal, and hints of salty smoke. This is then followed by a rich and multi-layered palate of ripe berries, orchard fruits, honey, caramel, toffee, butterscotch, walnut, and toasted oak, all tied together by a gentle, drying finish accented by notes of nuts, malt biscuit, and black pepper spice.
An approachable and versatile tipple, the Buchanan’s Select 15 Year Blended Malt Scotch Whisky is definitely worthy of a spot on your shelf whether you like your Scotch neat, on the rocks, or part of a delicious cocktail. So don’t think twice about picking up a bottle and enjoy the irresistible flavors that only this blended malt can deliver.
