Product Description

Buchana's Red Seal is inspired by the blend crafted by James Buchanan & Co. over 100 years ago, which was enjoyed by the British Royal Family on the Royal tour to mark the accession of Edward VII to the throne in 1901. The house of Buchanan's has specially selected casks of aged Scotch whiskies to create this exceptional blend. Whiskey with a prominent peat flavour from the Island of Islay are combined with fine Grain whiskies and Highland Malt whiskies, including unique expressions of Dalwhinnie Single Malt whiskey reserved exclusively from James Buchanan's home distillery, to bring mellowness and balance to the blend. Buchanan's Red Seal, is a true Buchanan's style blend, full bodied, intense, with strong charater, balanced and with smoky lingering finish. at its heart, the Buchanan's Red Seal is a symbol of guarantee and quality.

What critics and judges wrote

Distiller · Amanda Schuster
An intense mixture of dried fruits - dates, figs, raisins, prunes - adds jammy sweetness to initial sips. Then the dram opens up to vanilla, toffee and caramel notes … A very elegant and regal-tasting blend indeed!

Whisky Advocate · Jonny McCormick · 2017
Blender Maureen Robinson's light, well-balanced creation ushers in gentle honey and growing sweetness, before billowing puffs of smoke grow dominant. … Quite a charmer.

World Whiskies Awards judges · Silver · 2016
Lemon, butter and a light meaty broth character show hints of marigold glove on the nose, with sliced mango and battenburg falling in behind. The mouthfeel is sweet and thick, calling to mind crème brulee and fruit punch.

Flavor scores are our estimates. A flavor scores higher when more critics mention it and when they describe it more strongly, so no single review sets the result. They are not a rating from any publication.
