Following the success of Journey and Discovery, this release of Shackleton is a mainstream, accessible version. With notes of vanilla, honey and orchard fruits, this is a fitting tribute to the great explorer.

    Anonymous,

    Like several other reviewers, this reminds me of JW Black. A bit less smoke and a bit more fruit. Water makes it a bit too sweet so I stick to neat. Very impressed and regularly discounted in well known supermarkets. I recommend this whisky!

    Sean C,

    Low on the peaty scale. I liked it a lot.

    A splendid blend

    Dr. Phil Perkins,

    It tastes really good, and definitely worth the money if you can get it. It's only 40% alcohol compared to 43% which most whiskies are. It has a malt-forward nose with vanilla, toffee and a little astringency on the nose (very mild wine vinegar) and some fatty-acid esters. Golden yellow in color (very little brown tint). Taste - very balanced, no harsh peaty or medicinal notes, definite vanilla, esters, toffee-apple flavor - like many Speyside malts, slight solventy aftertaste but not unpleasant.

    You get what you pay for,

    Possibly the worst whisky I have paid for in a long time. Which is strange because other reviews are positive - I can only guess the whisky blend has changed to much younger spirit. Because this is VERY young whisky - not good, even at a knock down price.
