J&B 15 Year Old Reserve 1980s 75CL / 43% ABV
Description
Justerini & Brooks was established in 1831 when Alfred Brooks acquired the business founded by wine merchant, Giaccomo Justerini, which had been located in Pall Mall since the mid-18th century. The company was quick to catch on to the emerging popularity of whisky after blended Scotch was introduced by Andrew Usher in the 1880s. They acquired great stocks of whisky from Scotland and introduced their own blend for their clientele in London. This blend evolved into the now classic J&B Rare expression, introduced in the 1930s and specifically designed to capture the newly re-opened American market following the repeal of Prohibition.
