I am a fledgling fan of both Scotch whisky and Richard Paterson. I've heard about the W&M and I was eager to give it a try. Since rumours have it, that Dalmore and Fettercairn contribute strongly to this blend (obviously in character, not volume) I had some preconceptions, which were completely wrong. Both of those malts are oily, strong, mouth coating and have a heavy sweet taste. Think soggy, rich Christmas Pudding... This blend is nothing like that. It's a mans mans whisky. It is oily and strong alright, but personally I didn't find any of the sweetness and dessert qualities of either Dalmore or a good Fior. Think of this whisky as a burly Scot with thick forearms and a thick accent. A bit brutal, a bit rough around the edges but very friendly and honest. Very good fella to have in a dark alleyway. This is of course more an observation, than a criticism, but be aware of what you're getting up to. It is also excellently priced. Recommend. I admit I have never tried Teachers or Grants and I don't like the beer like, hop and malt scent and aftertaste of Bells.
of blended whiskies this is the top of my list, Grants will come second; anything else gets ginger. don't defile it with water or mixer. "overhyped junk" - HA! get a life. to reiterate down to personal taste and definitely worth exploring
Cheap and inoffensive blend. Better than Bells.
I can't understand peoples complaints about this Whiskey and as for not as good as Teachers or Grants. it's a blend and always on the supermarket shelf and often on discount. It is a good drop and equal to any low priced supermarket booze. I am a Speyside man but I will pick up Whyte and Mackay when the litre bottle in on offer and I would not choose Grants Or Teachers when Whyte and Mackay is on the shelf .
What a bloody good blended Scotch. Absolutely smooth and easy drink
