VAT 694.7(124 reviews)
VAT 69 Imported Blended Scotch Whisky is an premium, bottled-in-origin (BIO) expression that delivers the absolute, uncompromising authenticity of William Sanderson's original Leith blending legacy. Distilled, matured, and masterfully bottled directly in Scotland under strict guidelines, this premium blended Scotch is crafted from up to 40 exceptional malt and grain whiskies. Anchored by the prestigious Royal Lochnagar single malt, it pours a rich golden amber, releasing sophisticated aromas of honeyed oak, sweet vanilla, and a gentle wisp of peat smoke. On the palate, it is remarkably smooth, presenting a velvety texture with rich flavors of butterscotch, toasted grain, and warming winter spices, leading to a long, comforting, and smoky finish.
