We assessed Whisky Review: Pig Nose Blended Scotch and bottled at 45% abv or 90 proof; $21. At $21.99, it carries the weight of expectation.
Palate
This is a very approachable blended scotch whisky. It has a lot of fun, albeit simple, components that work reasonably well enough together. Nothing about the whisky was overly complex and I could see this working well in a cocktail with a strong backbone. This company also manages Monkey Shoulder, which is an old standard for cocktails that need a blended scotch, but Id offer this might be an even easier mixing Scotch if Monkey Shoulder is too robust for your palate.
