The Fat Trout Blended Scotch Whisky arrives as an approachable and characterful blended Scotch, designed for both relaxed sipping and versatile mixing. It presents a familiar Scotch identity while remaining easygoing in its delivery.
On the label you will find its strength clearly stated as 40% ABV, which gives the spirit enough presence to reveal layers of aroma and flavour without overwhelming the palate.
Originating from Scotland, this blended whisky balances elements commonly found in blended Scotch: gentle malt sweetness, subtle cereal notes and a hint of spice that ties the profile together.
Serve it thoughtfully to appreciate its nuance; a slightly cool temperature brings out aromatic clarity and softens alcohol warmth. A recommended serving temperature is 10–14°C to enjoy both nose and palate.
Tasting profile and character
Visually, expect a warm, light amber hue that suggests soft malt and gentle caramel tones in the glass.
The nose opens with cereals and light toffee, accompanied by delicate floral or honeyed notes that lift the aromatics.
On the palate the whisky shows balanced sweetness and a clean grain backbone, with gentle spices—think mild baking spice rather than sharp pepper—providing structure.
The finish is approachable and lingering in a medium style, leaving subtle sweet and dry echoes that invite another sip without demanding it.
How to enjoy: serving and pairings
Enjoy neat or with a splash of water to open the aromas; the spirit’s balance responds well to small dilution, which can release additional aromatic detail.
It also makes a versatile base for classic mixed drinks and highball-style serves, where its blend of malt and subtle spice complements citrus and soda.
Pair with savoury snacks and appetizers such as smoked meats, salty cheeses or spiced nuts to highlight the whisky’s toasty and cereal-driven qualities.
For a quiet moment of reflection, serve as a gentle digestive—its smooth profile allows it to work as a contemplative sip after a meal without overpowering lighter dessert flavours.
