- Description
- Black & White was a blended Scotch of significant royal patronage, endorsed by both HM the King and HRH the Prince of Wales in the 1930s when this bottling was released. This spring-capped expression at 40% ABV represents the blending house at a time when it commanded prestige among Britain's upper echelons. A historical artifact as much as a whisky, it appeals to those interested in the cultural positioning of Scotch during the interwar period.
