The Whisky of 1990 Whyte & Mackay Blended Scotch Whisky

The Whisky of 1990 is the blended Scotch that Whyte & Mackay created to celebrate Glasgow as European City of Culture in 1990. The painting across the top of the label, a harbour view with a large crane, was commissioned by the company from the Glasgow artist Archie Forrest; a tag hanging from the neck completes the presentation.

The nose shows toffee, vanilla, honey and caramel; the palate soft fruit, honey, oak and a light pepper, with a short finish of roasted oak and butterscotch. Behind the blend stands the house founded in Glasgow in 1882 by James Whyte and Charles Mackay.
