Knockando. Sound familiar? No? Eh, don’t be too hard on yourself. That’s because it’s served as a key component of J&B for years. But occasionally, this Speyside joint will release a single malt expression that, well, “knocks” you out (sorry, we had to go there). And this one is an older edition that was distilled in 1980 and bottled in 1995. It’s a throwback in the very best sense of the word.

Scotland is home to more than 20 million casks of maturing Whisky. That’s four for every person living there. Nuts!
Blended Whiskies are the result of years of craftsmanship and dedication. A master blender does not simply wake up one day with a profound ability to create a cohesive and enjoyable liquid. From nosing the liquid to working out quantities of each different grain and malt to go into the blend, a master blender can take years, if not decades, to train.
Only 10% of Knockando malts are used for single malt bottles. J&B is the main blend Whisky that uses Knockando.
Can Scotch go bad? Technically, an unopened bottle of Scotch can last forever. Air is the only true evil to Whisky; once the liquid is oxidized it is no longer immortal. After opening, as long as you store your Whisky in a cool, dry place, it will last another 5 years.
Single malt stands for around 10% of the Scotch market. This is a malt containing only one grain, legally required to be barley in Scotland, and made at a single distillery.

A blended Scotch is a combination of different malts from different distilleries. It is typically made from grain Whisky but does include malt Whisky to give it a more complex body.
Is Scotch always Scottish? What do you think? Yes. The answer is yes.
