Butterscotch & Vanilla...

Love yourself some well-matured grain whisky and maybe too many ampersands? OK, perhaps it's more likely that the number of ampersands in a whisky's name doesn't really matter to you one way or the other. Never-the-less, if you're a grain whisky fan, Butterscotch & Vanilla & Toast & A Generation will be very appealing to you indeed! This expression is a 30 year old blended grain Scotch whisky, offering up notes of... Well, the name hits the main themes (it's sort of like it's trying to do my job, and I'm not 100% sure how I feel about that), and there's lots more deliciousness where that came from too. Tuck in!

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

Nose Honeycomb, red grapes, immensely buttery, Golden Grahams, a smidge of waxy orange peel, polished oak, and a touch of floral spring breeze.

Palate Thick with rich butterscotch, freshly baked cookies dotted with chocolate chunks, slightly peppery at points with a dry hint of toasted cedar.

Finish Waxy peels from the nose return, with layers of vanilla, cinnamon, gingerbread, and treacle for company.

Reviews for Butterscotch & Vanilla & Toast & A Generation 30 Year Old
So disappointing
This had a ghastly artificial flavour, like somebody had added the flavours on the label (perhaps they had). It was rough not smooth and I could not have been more disappointed. I'd prefer to drink Famous Grouse and I hate that. I drink a lot of whisky and love exploring new ones. I also buy (and drink) a lot of high quality whiskies from auctions, so I do know what I am talking about............

Lots of flavour but not too complex. Easy to drink. You wouldn't have put it as a 30yr old though

Not bad at all!
It’s a 30 year old blended grain. I expected it to be a decent drinking dram and it is. A pleasant nose and you get a hint of the age on the palette. If it was £20 cheaper I would buy another bottle but at this price point there is better options.

Ok. Bit spensive.
A scotch that tastes mostly of bourbon. Very mild, it's pleasant, but wouldn't think "oh wow it's done something useful in all those years". Nice. Bland. Bit overpriced, tastes like, well, blended whiskey. But, 30 years.

My New Standard
I know what I like without being a whisky buff. This is good. Very easy to drink; I drink neat. Feels good on the palette. Realise I need to try a few more of the series

Vile
This is borderline undrinkable. I bought my brother a bottle and it tastes like Southern comfort. It is distinctly unpleasant. Don't be fooled by the age - it would be a complete waste of money at £10 a bottle

Absolutely delicious
Absolutely delicious. No need to say anything else.

Very, very good for the money!
I've recently been getting into grain blends as an 'affordable' way to experience very old scotch (there's something to be said for being an unfashionable drink). I was too tempted to say no at the price - it arrived yesterday (within 24 hours on standard delivery, nice!). It does exactly what it says on the bottle. It has the character of a very good bourbon which isn't surprising being a grain whiskey. Exceptionally smooth, a bit heavier on the oak, and a little sweet - but not as thick as a similarly aged malt. That said, it's a third of the price. If you buy it expecting a £400 bottle of 30-year single malt, you won't get what you are hoping for. That said, for £65, it's an absolute bargain and I'd be happy paying twice that for it.

Lovely smooth with lots of flavour
Lovely smooth with lots of flavour. The tasting notes are too complex. After all, if I put rich butterscotch, freshly baked cookies dotted with chocolate chunks, pepper, with a dry hint of toasted cedar into a glass, then added vanilla, cinnamon, gingerbread, and treacle all together it would not taste nice at all.
To me, it has a honey sweetness that is not sugar sweet, but still has the flavour. The toast flavour also comes through. It is smooth, and warm, with no harsh burning sensations which spoil (for me) some other whiskies. Basically, a lovely easy to drink whisky which does seem to reflect its 30 year age and the name given to it.
