- Description
- J&B's 15-year-old Reserve is a blend of over 40 grain and malt whiskies, drawing notably from Knockando, Strathmill, and Glen Spey, which impart malty richness and subtle smoke. The extended aging has softened the blend into a rounded profile with notes of fruit, vanilla, and oak building towards a clean finish. At 40% ABV, this expression balances accessibility with the sophistication of a long-aged blend. A versatile dram suited to both casual enjoyment and contemplative sipping.
