A Devil in Disguise.

Angels have been shamelessly stealing our Whisky for years, so it’s high time someone decided to do something about it and retrieve some of our lost treasures. That someone is Grantown-on-Spey based Highfern Ltd, who decided to bottle a “cut” of the Angel’s Share, the name of course alluding to the infamous 2% of Whisky that evaporates from the casks during maturation every year. This may not sound like a lot initially, but considering Whisky has to be aged for at least three years and there are literally millions of casks maturing all around the world, these things add up.

But this is not just a game of simple addition. No, sir. Blending Whisky is an art in its own right. The different malts in a blend must be carefully chosen to complement and enhance one another. Perhaps we don’t know much about art, but we know Whisky and we know what we like and we definitely like what Highfern have been doing with their blended expressions. Their motto is 'Blended by Angels, Shared with Friends'. They decided to combine a number of Scottish malts to recreate what the Angels might well be enjoying up in Whisky Wonderland and we’re here to share the Nectar with you – our friends.

They came out with their standard First Edition blend a while back, so here go, once more unto the breach, dear friends. Angel’s Nectar Blended Malt Whisky Rich Peat Edition is the smokier, stronger variant of the range, made with a selection of Highland malts. Bottled at 46 % ABV and packing plenty of peaty punch, it’s strong enough to make the angels weep. A true devil in disguise. Add a splash of water, if you want to smooth out the showing horns. Either way, this Whisky is definitely not a devil’s bargain, but a great blended malt we would highly recommend if you like your Whisky smoky, warm and strong.

Scotch Whisky is seldom aged in new barrels. Bourbon and Tennessee Whiskey casks are usually used for maturation. In addition to that, Whisky is often matured or finished in various wine casks such as Sherry or Port.
Whisky distilling goes way back to 1494 when the first recorded batch was made by a posse of monks who acquired about 60 gallons of barley and decided to turn it into "aqua vitae". They created the first 1,500 bottles of Scotch in History.
Beer and malt Whisky seem to have quite a bit in common. Both drinks begin with malted barley, which deliver the enzymes and sugars needed for fermentation when steeped in hot water. The two go their separate ways at the wash stage, where they're fermented or aged to become the adult beverages you know and love.
Categories of Scotch Whisky: Single malt, Blended malt (formerly called Vatted malt), blended, single grain and blended grain Scotch.
Whisky or Whiskey? The spelling differs geographically. In Scotland, Japan, and some other parts of the world, distilleries usually spell it Whisky; in Ireland and the USA, they spell it Whiskey.
Is Scotch always Scottish? What do you think? Yes. The answer is yes.
