A Quiet Kind of Chill
Having your closest confidantes by your side on calm evenings with soft music and perfectly dimmed lights has a certain allure. No hurry, just pleasant emotions. It's the type of energy that the appropriate spirit fits into, not loudly, but as if it were supposed to. One company in particular, Embassy Whisky, has made an appearance throughout those times.
A quiet favorite among people who appreciate good taste without the loudness, this Tanduay beverage is smooth enough to drink neat and also great to blend in a cocktail without losing its identity. A well-crafted pour that feels like it is a part of the evening rather than its focal point, without any extravagance or glitz.
Crafted with Whiskies Aged and Distilled in Scotland
Embassy is the type of whisky that you notice because it meshes so well with your rhythm, not because it calls for attention. You can relax with just one drink. It begins with a mildly smoky scent that is loaded with notes of wood, ripe banana, and faint peat. Malt, oak, banana, and subtle hints of honey and vanilla are among the characteristics that emerge on the palate along with a smooth, well-balanced, and light sweet body.
“Embassy Whisky is made by blending neutral grain spirit with whisky that is distilled and aged in Scotland, bottling it at 65 Proof to achieve that light and easy-to-drink profile. The whisky blended into Embassy is made only from malt whiskies matured for at least three years in oak casks to preserve their oak-influenced character and subtle peat notes that root it in Scotch tradition. You can sip it neat to appreciate its sweet malt, banana, and vanilla notes, or try it on the rocks to mellow the sweetness and bring out more of the woody and mild peat tones. Because of its lighter body and 32.5% ABV, it also works well as a mixing whisky by pairing it with soda water or cola. For those new to whisky, starting with a simple highball (whisky and soda with ice and a citrus juice) would be an ideal way to enjoy Embassy without overwhelming the palate.” ~Janno Gironella, head of Tanduay’s Research & Development
With its relatively light body, sweet and fruity notes, and lower alcohol content at 32.5% alcohol by volume or ABV (standard ABV for whiskies is 40%), it caters to those that want an easy-drinking spirit that can be enjoyed neat, on the rocks, or mixed and those who are trying whisky for the first time.
A Tribute to the Quiet Strength of the Filipino
The kind of chill that Embassy Whisky brings is something Filipinos embody. It’s the calm confidence that comes from overcoming daily challenges, of steadfastly putting in the hard work despite the obstacles along the way, and celebrating the small wins in the company of the most genuine circle of friends.
“Embassy Whisky is crafted with the hardworking Filipino in mind — a tribute to the people who carry the weight of everyday life with quiet strength. It reflects the spirit of the Philippines: resilient, grounded, and always finding time to share moments of ease. It brings a sense of comfort and belonging. It is a whisky that welcomes you at the end of the day and makes simple moments feel more deserved.” ~Gem Leonard Boy, Brand Manager at Tanduay
