Tesco Blended Everyday is a value-oriented blended Scotch whisky marketed under Tesco’s private label. It is made from a combination of malt and grain whiskies, blended to emphasize approachability rather than complexity. Rated modestly by whisky aficionados, it aims to serve as a baseline Scotch suitable for mixing or casual sipping.

Serving Suggestions:
Best used as a mixer or in simple whisky cocktails: e.g. whisky & soda, highball, or with ginger ale. When served neat or on the rocks, it is best chilled slightly to moderate its basic character. Avoid expecting deep complexity; it works well as a “house” blending whisky in casual settings.
