Angus Dundee Distillers
MacRoys Blended Scotch Whisky Special Reserve
MacRoys4.7(1,850 reviews)
MacRoys Blended Scotch Whisky Special Reserve is an exceptional value-driven Scotch crafted by Angus Dundee Distillers — the independent Scottish house behind the Tomintoul (Speyside) and Glencadam (Highlands) distilleries. Conceived specifically for the Indian market, this blended Scotch marries rich, fruity Speyside single malts with smooth grain spirit, all matured in carefully chosen first-fill ex-bourbon (BB1) barrels. The BB1 maturation imparts a charming, warm character: a nose of vanilla custard, coconut cream, and dried fruit, with a well-rounded, mellow sweetness on the palate and a pleasantly warm, spiced oak finish. At 42.8% ABV, it is bottled with sufficient strength to hold its own neat or over ice, making it one of the most honest and flavourful Blended Scotch Whiskies available in the Indian market at this price point.

Taste: 5/5Value: 5/5
“Absolutely spectacular! Visited a local outlet in Panaji and picked up MacRoys Blended Scotch Whisky Special Reserve. At ₹1,480 in Goa, this represents incredible value. The notes of Vanilla custard and Coconut cream pair phenomenally well with home-cooked Pork Vindaloo. Highly recommended!”
