Master blenders play a pivotal role, layering flavors across regions and grains.
Blended Scotch Whisky
Blended Scotch whisky combines single malt and single grain whiskies, often from multiple distilleries. It’s the most popular style globally, making up over 90% of Scotch exports.
Blends are crafted for balance and smoothness, featuring approachable notes like vanilla, caramel, dried fruit, and gentle spice. Master blenders play a pivotal role, layering flavors across regions and grains.
Due to controlled cask aging and grain integration, seasonal and terroir differences are minimized—making it consistent and accessible. Famous examples include Johnnie Walker, Chivas Regal, and Dewar’s.
