White Horse - 1980s - 1 Litre
White Horse. 1 Litre. 43%.
White Horse is one of the classic blended Scotch whiskies. The brand’s name and famous logo come from the White Horse pub in Edinburgh, which was owned by the Mackie family from the mid-17th century until 1917. The Mackies bought Lagavulin in 1862 and the White Horse blend was introduced in 1890, the year after the legendary Peter Mackie had taken the reins of the family business.
Famously described as ‘one-third genius, one-third megalomaniac and one-third eccentric’, Peter Mackie caused a stir on Islay, famously building the Malt Mill distillery on the grounds of Lagavulin in 1908 in a fit of pique after a failed agency agreement with Laphroaig. Mackie’s business was renamed White Horse Distillers after his death in 1924 and was subsumed into Distillers Company Ltd in 1927. Sadly, White Horse is an export-only brand nowadays, but older bottles are still highly sought-after at auction.
