The Black Bottle 10 Year Old is a blended Scotch whisky crafted with a focus on the robust, smoky character of Islay malts. Released in 2020, this expression marks a significant return for Black Bottle, featuring a carefully curated blend of whiskies matured for a decade in American oak casks.
Black Bottle is a historic blended Scotch whisky brand founded by the Graham brothers in Aberdeen, Scotland, in 1879. Initially crafted with a strong influence from Islay malts, Black Bottle developed a reputation for its smoky, bold flavor, which distinguished it from other Scotch blends.
