About Chapter 7 Whisky's Williamson 9 Year Old Blended Malt
Williamson is a tea-spooned malt. But what is tea-spooning? Sometimes distilleries don't want their brand names an independent bottler's label. So, they add a teaspoon of malt whisky from another distillery and make the whisky a 'blend'. That way, the independent bottler can't use their trademark. In the whisky trade, tea-spooned malts have distinct names like 'Williamson'. People know where the whisky is from, they can't put the name on the bottle.

Chapter 7 Whisky always wanted to bottle a Williamson cask, and they were thrilled with this one. This is a powerful whisky that reflects the unedited character of Laphroaig distillery.
