White Horse


Blended Scotch
Purchase Price: $12
Place of Purchase: Warehouse - New York, NY
Rating: 8.6


My all-time favorite "bargain" blend and you can purchase a bottle for roughly the price of breakfast at Denny's or a child's wooden pull toy. It's got a bit of everything, all expertly arranged and balanced--a bit like a walking tour of Scotland in a glass. White Horse is so beloved that fanatic devotees have actually carved massive tributes to it on the side of hills in the UK. That's the kind of dedication only an exceptional whisky is deserving of and I am here to say that White Horse is so exceptional that I truly believe these mysterious simply aren't enough--it really is worthy of having a visual memorial to it blasted into the side of Mount Everest using pinpoint-placed SCUD missiles and a battleship full of white paint. Buy a case and settle in for the winter, it'll be the best one of your life.
