About this bottle

Usquaebach means "water of life" - the origin of the word "whisky." This once popular brand of blended Scotch, dating back to the 1760s and originally owned by Twelve Stone Flagons is now owned by Cobalt Brands. 85% of the blend is 41 different Highland single malts, the oldest 20 years, and the rest grain whisky.

jacobhayman 3.3

Nose: grainy, faint sweetness, oak, raisins, heather, sherry Body: light Palate: heather with wafts of smoke but faint. Sweet, honey, very smooth. Finish: short and sweet Note: the oaky nose is not on the palate. This is nice but not amazing.

BourbonLuvr 3.8

Overall, this is a good blend without too much peat (not a big fan of when it seems to be overloaded) and the clay jug is pretty cool too have in your collection as well.

drunkenMonkey 1.0

Super sweet caramel, maple syrup flavor. Then finishes with an unexpected peat smoke.

Surfbum 4.0

Subtle butterscotch on the nose. Light fruit on the palate.
