Black & White Blended Whisky is a classic old blend of some of the finest whiskies in Scotland with a high proportion of quality grain whisky. Creator James Buchanan apparently got the idea for the brand on his way home from a dog-show and in the 1890s The Scottie and Westie on the label were added and became iconic symbols.
