Bell's Original Blended Scotch Whisky (70cl, 40%)

Bell's Original is a blended Scotch whisky in a 70cl bottle at 40% abv, from a name with a history going back to 1825. It combines malt and grain whiskies, with the malt from the Blair Athol distillery forming the backbone of the blend. It is matured in oak casks. The nose is soft, with malt, fresh herbs and floral touches, plus a little honey and light peat smoke. On the palate there are toffee, raisins and soft fruit, with hints of oak and mild spice. The finish is medium in length, with gentle smoke and a background of vanilla and nuts.
