This bottling of a Schenley Reserve American Whiskey is a blend of 35% 8-year-old straight whiskey and 65% 4-year-old light whiskey, the label was labelled 1981.
Whiskey production in the United States is dominated by about a dozen large distilleries, so that almost all whiskey sold comes from a single distillery, and blended whiskey is almost non-existent as a mixture of the whiskey of several distilleries.
The terms single barrel for whiskey from a single cask and small batch for whiskey from a relatively small number of casks have become established as distinguishing features.
