Cutty Sark Prohibition Bottling Note
Cutty Sark's Prohibition Edition blended Scotch whisky is a higher strength expression, sitting at 50% ABV (their classic expression is bottled at 40% ABV). Created as a tip of the hat to famous Prohibition era rum-runner Captain William McCoy...

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose: There's custard notes familiar from the 40% ABV expression, though now paired with more citrus, pear and fudge cubes you get in sea-side sweet shops.
Palate: Toffee chunks with a little bit of dark chocolate hidden inside. A touch of grassy malt and crushed nuts.
Finish: A final hint of caramel and golden malt.

Cutty Sark Prohibition Edition Blended Scotch Whisky Reviews
Bargain
This is an absolute steal. Flavours of pepper and toffee sweetness and at 50% its got a bit of an edge. Highly recommend.

Best blended scotch I've had
I wonder why there is so little blended whisky out there thate above 40%...this is magical, by far the best price to taste and experience i have ever found.
Love it, all the creamy toffee with cracked black pepper....delicious.

Christmases of yore
This dram takes me right back to Christmases of yore. It's the sort of 'special' bottle that my dad would get in. It's smooth enough to sip neat and it's a very more-ish whisky indeed. Being 50% abv it's a good mixer too - if you like wasting your good stuff!

Should have stayed with my usual drams
I am 67 years old. When I started drinking whisky many years ago, I started with blends but through the years I moved to drinking only single malts and have done so for several decades. in a moment of madness I decided - because of the rave reviews and the fact that this is 50% and ncf - to reconnect with what is regarded to be a superior blend. Sadly, I have to say that I didn't enjoy this dram - it was just not to my taste. For mid-week drams, I can buy, in all my local supermarkets, NAS single malt whiskies like Tamnavulin, Glen Keith and Glenallachie for £20 and even 12yo Glenlivet for £24, I think I'll be giving blends a miss. My usual malts are the excellent bottlings by Carn Mor and James Eadie so I suppose it is really unfair to compare these to Prohibition. This is just one man's opinion. I hope that those drinkers who enjoy blends - and I have many friends who do - give this a go, as it is so highly regarded.

Buy it
Excellent. Really gorgeous flavour and great value for 50% ABV. Had no expectations coming into this, but it is now firmly on my ‘buy again’ list. RA.

I'm going....
The predominant taste note here is banana! I'll not go any deeper, because if your palate picks it up like mine does, that's all you can focus on!

Interesting spirit.
A most interesting spirit indeed, but in a very good way.
The comparable rum-like qualities are clearly there - sweet butterscotch/toffee, vanilla - and a slight sharpness, a mild but pleasant burn (100-proof/50% ABV), is very much like a whisky, as is the body of this drink. The finish/aftertaste is a battle of rum vs. whisky notes, and quite good.
Surprisingly high-quality & value at an economically-friendly price.
A sound, solid choice, probably one of the best blended scotch-whiskys one will ever try.

An integrity blended scotch.
Nose: Coconut, vanilla
Palate: Creamy, Oily, sweet
Finish: Slightly peppery (not astringent or harsh), mouth-watering
I sincerely hope they don’t stop making this, I don’t have an alternative that’s this good at this price point (or even a little higher.)
