From Collins Pocket referance : Whisky
Black Bottle was first produced by a family of merchants from Aberdeen in 1879,
and has been a premium blend ever since it first appeared on the market.
The company was sold to Long John International in 1959,
later being acquired by Allied Distillers in 1990,
before ultimately passing into the control of Matthew Gloag,
the producers of The Famous Grouse blend.
A big seller in the Scottish market, Black Bottle is linked to Laphroaig.
Its distinctive pot-still shaped bottle, used almost since its first appearance,
rapidly became tis trademark and has remained virtually unchanged to the present day.
Tasting comment : Black Bottle is a smooth, superior-quality blend with a fresh hint of peat,
complemented by sweeter, malty notes.
