Berry Bros. & Rudd

Berry Bros. & Rudd, Britain's oldest wine and spirits merchant since 1698, is based on London's historic St James's Street. This blended malt marks a significant return after more than a decade away, bringing the house's heritage back to the forefront with a thoughtfully composed blend.

The whisky draws from malt distilleries across Scotland's regions and is finished in sherry casks, which lend rich, dark character. The composition reflects traditional Scotch whisky values—balance and depth are paramount.

On the nose, brown sugar, raisins, and cherries lead, with subtle coal smoke, grainy minerality, and herbaceous undertones. The palate brings dark chocolate, espresso, and oak spice, while the finish lingers warm and fruity with a drying edge and hints of bitter orange. This is a whisky for those who appreciate provenance and a classically constructed blend.
