This week on the Podcast we speak with Nico Martini. His company Hypeworthy does digital marketing…mostly for the Hospitality and Spirits industries. Johnnie Walker Benders' Batch Triple Grain American Oak Blended Scotch Whisky Aged 10 years in American Oak Casks. This is the first U.S. release in the new experimental Blenders' Batch series, with limited availability. It is extremely rare to see the words "Grain Whiskies" on a bottle of Scotch. Also to see the word "Blended" displayed so prominently. Consumers (often blindly), flock to Single Malt Scotch, and automatically assume they are far better quality than Blended Whiskies. Johnnie Walker has, of course built their entire business on Blended Whiskies and produces excellent products. This is a good tasting Whisky at a very reasonable price point. You can see Brian’s tasting notes here.
