J&B Rare has long been a go-to for whisky fans across the globe, particularly in Europe.
Following the end of Prohibition in the USA, J&B Rare was created by Justerini & Brooks to appeal to the American palate, hitting shelves in 1933. The blend itself is made with a combination of 42 Scotch single malts and grains, with a generous portion of Speyside whisky at the expression's core.
J&B Rare is perfect for those who enjoy a classic whisky taste with a modern twist. This smooth Scotch is great on the rocks or neat, and it's also versatile enough to be used in cocktails.
J&B Rare whisky is an affordable option that delivers on taste and quality, so it's no wonder that it's one of the most popular Scotches on the market. If you're looking for a go-to whisky that won't break the bank, J&B Rare is a great choice.

The older metal screw cap bottles are lovely with good smoke. The new plastic cap ones are different. The same applies to Ballantines finest. The older metal cap ones have smoke. Perhaps it the cost of Islay malt now. Anybody else agree??
This blend has been around since 1749. It is easy to see why it has been so successful. A light but vibrant nose gives way to subtle citrus and almond notes with a hint of smoke in the back. If you acknowledge that this is as a blend made for mixing with ice or soda, you will be pleasantly surprised that sipping it neat is also an enjoyable experience for the little you pay. Truly a legend. Cheers.
Try Cardhu.
Drinkable neat but a fantastic mixer
Amazing. I just mixed this with bitters and soda water and it was absolutely phenomenal. No joke. Very tasty. This will be my go to mixer. Wouldn't drink it neat but that's reserved for pricier candidates.
