Pigs Nose is an exceptionally fine five year old blended whisky, created by Richard Patterson, Scotlands only third generation master blender. The blend contains a high percentage (40%) of malt whiskies, principally from Speyside imbuing the product with their characteristic softness; the name comes from the farming expression soft as a pigs nose Described in Jim Murray's Whisky Bible 2006 as A big, sweet, chunky, gawky, grainlashed but hugely enjoyable blend."
