Black Dog Scotch Whisky

Black Dog is a brand of Scotch Whisky, distilled, aged and blended in Scotland by United Spirits Limited. Black Dog Scotch Whisky is the world’s fastest growing Scotch Whisky by volume (as per international Wine and Spirits Research).

The whiskies used in the blend come from all regions of Scotland - Speyside, Islay, Highlands and Lowlands. It is matured in fine Oloroso sherry casks that lend their flavour to the whisky.

Black Dog Scotch Whisky sold in India is bottled in Parmori District Nasik in Maharashtra, by importing the undiluted spirits from Scotland, a strategy that avoids the import duties imposed on liquor imports to India that are bottled prior to import.

The brand's main competitors are Something Special, Teacher's Highland Cream and 100 Pipers.
