BattleScotch! The Black Grouse v The Famous Jubilee with Goran & Matt

Here we go! Let’s hear it for predictable BattleScotches!

Today, of course, we’re pitting The Black Grouse against The Famous Jubilee. You could say that this particular head-to-head makes more sense than some of our previous pairings, and I’d agree, but I’d probably also start shout-asking you questions about YOUR scotch blog and how YOU manage to keep coming up with new content and how many people view YOUR site and maybe you should drink a nice Glen Cairn glass of a petulant little 10y Shut The Fuck Up.

OVER 200,000 HITS SO FAR, SON.

Anyway, after I’ve shouted my insecurities out at you and then bragged a little bit, I might say that this sort of pairing is exactly why we launched the BattleScotch! category in the first place. They are the same brand, same type of scotch, in the same price range. This is a test that will provide some real-world, useable information… still based on personal subjective experiences, but hey, what isn’t?

(Science isn’t! But this ain’t science.) Here’s what we thought:

The Black Grouse v The Famous Jubilee = The Black Grouse takes it by a feather, but make note of how you drink scotch, and that will tell you which way you should go.
