Trade Mark "X" Bottling Note
You might recognise the name James Eadie and Trade Mark "X" if you're a whisky history buff (or time traveller). Eadie began producing this expression all the way back in 1854, and trademarked the cross logo in 1877 - just a year after the Trade Mark Registration Act became a thing! Trade Mark "X" was produced until the late 1940s, then disappeared. However, the brand has been relaunched by Eadie's great-great-grandson, with a recipe that features 14 of the 16 whiskies that appeared in the original Trade Mark "X", including a couple of closed distilleries!

Lovely
Very nice indeed. Just a hint of smoke\iodine at the beginning but far from over powering, yet ends with some sweetness and...will be buying again.

X marks the spot
A great story of the reincarnation of a heritage brand. I’d highly recommend Trade Mark X to anyone looking for a decent blend at a reasonable price point. X marks the spot!

My perfect blended whisky
I was given this by my best friend after being knocked off my bike on Christmas Eve by a hit and run van - collar bone in 8 pieces...not only did I get out of the washing up - but this pale peaty whisky made my January. I’m hooked - try it and see - I’m sticking with this one !

Why have beige when you can have the whole rainbow
Having only just heard about this .. the story intrigued and I thought it worth a try. It certainly has the smoothness of the Speysides and the smokiness of the island whiskies. It’s a REALLY nice blend (well done Norman Mathison). Good balance of fruitiness without the overpowering “Christmas cake” flavour of say a Glenfarclas 15yo. I really like it. For the puritans who suggest that blended whisky is inferior ... as my grandmother famously said "why have beige when you can have the whole rainbow!"

Smooth peat and flavoursome
Love this blend, an exciting blast from the past, might get another bottle to make sure I’ve got a first edition to last into the future.
