McGibbon's Red Ribbon is the standard blended Scotch from the Douglas McGibbon range — a Douglas Laing brand that uses the company's cask-sourcing expertise to create affordable everyday blends. Matured in first and second-fill bourbon casks and ex-oloroso sherry wood, it targets the budget everyday market.
The Douglas Laing sourcing connection ensures quality component whiskies. The bourbon casks contribute vanilla and toffee, the sherry adds a touch of dried fruit, and the overall impression is of a sweet, warming blend that exceeds its modest price.
McGibbon's Red Ribbon is a reliable budget blend. Not exciting, not challenging, but honestly made with genuine care from a company that knows its whisky. Sweet, warming and great value for the money.
