buchanan's pineapple

Scottish Highlands with a Hawaiian shirt

Buchanan's Pineapple Scotch Whiskey is surprising and unexpected. First of all…Scotch with pineapple? So crazy! But no. Buchanan's has somehow figured out how to make the two disparate flavors meld together in harmony. The scent of pineapple wafts out of the bottle immediately upon opening. It smells like fresh pineapple juice, direct from the tropics. But when you pour and take the first taste, you are transported to the Scottish Highlands, albeit wearing a Hawaiian aloha shirt. The natural pineapple and citrus flavors that have been added to the mix mellow out the bite that can sometimes be a characteristic of scotch. I tried it straight, sipping, but it would be tasty in any traditional tropical mixed drinks. The bottle would also look great on anyone's home bar. I can still taste the pleasant scotch smokiness on my palate.

This tastes exactly how you'd expect it would

This is a mid grade shelf whiskey that tastes like pineapple. If you like pineapple, you'll definitely enjoy it. The packaging made it hard to pour because it has a pour tip not open spout. The taste is smoothe and not harsh. It has a fragrent aroma of pineapples.
