UK: Berry Bros. & Rudd has launched a limited edition Michael Jackson blended whisky

UK: Berry Bros. & Rudd has launched a limited edition Michael Jackson blended whisky, which has been created to honour the life of one of the Whisky industry’s most respected professionals.

Berry Bros & Rudd’s spirits manager, Doug McIvor and Whisky Magazine decided to honour his memory by creating a one-off, limited edition whisky in Michael’s name, with a label carefully designed by Michael’s brother-in-law.

A unique blend was made using the opened bottles from Michael's extensive collection of tasting samples.

A proportion of the proceeds will be going to the Parkinson’s Society.

The blend gives aromas of ‘apples, custard cream and orange peel with lurking spice and delicate whiffs of smoke’.

The Michael Jackson Blend is available from Berry Bros. & Rudd priced £69.95 per bottle on 0800 280 2440 and www.bbr.com.
