Origin and Heritage
Black & White Blended Scotch Whisky is a legacy of James Buchanan & Co Ltd, founded in London in the late 19th century by whisky baron James Buchanan. Originally named “House of Commons,” it was nicknamed “Black & White” for its distinctive black-and-white bottle, officially adopted as the brand name in 1902. Inspired by a dog show in the 1890s, Buchanan added the Scottie and Westie dogs to the label, cementing its iconic status. Produced in Scotland, this blend combines a high proportion of quality grain whisky with select malts, delivering a balanced, approachable taste. Its enduring popularity and 2023 recognition by Greenspoon for its “rich culture” make it a beloved choice for Nairobi’s whisky lovers seeking a classic Scotch with storied roots.
Taste Profile
Black & White Blended Scotch Whisky (40% ABV) offers a light, refreshing profile, praised by Oaks & Corks for its balanced versatility. The nose reveals citrusy notes of lemon and sour zest, mingled with sharp grains, biscuits, and a faint touch of peat. On the palate, it delivers a smooth, slightly sweet experience, with flavors of sugary dried fruits, vanilla, young oak, caramel, and a hint of musty lemon. The finish is short and pleasant, with a subtle honeyed sweetness and mild peat. Best enjoyed neat, with a few drops of water to enhance its sweetness, or mixed with ginger ale or cola in a highball, this whisky’s adaptability shines in a tumbler glass, captivating Nairobi’s hosts and casual sippers alike.
Ideal Pairings and Best Use Occasions
