Ah, one of the whiskies I care least about yet have probably ordered more than any other. Despite it not really appealing to me, it takes pours of a peaty whisky from a flask pretty well and helps let you drink something that tastes like what you want at a bar that doesn’t carry anything you like. Saves a pretty penny on only needing the one round, too. Anyway, I finally decided to get a mini and give it a proper sit down review. Regrettably I forgot to take the photograph before finishing it, but you’ve all seen colored, blended whisky.
Johnnie Walker Black Label 12, Scotland Blend, 40% ABV
Minutia: Neat in a glencairn.
Color: Burnished, 1.1.
Nose: Honey. Very weak.
Taste: Honey, malt, dough. Hint of caramel.
Finish: Malty, dough, some spice.
This is very ok. It’s almost as medium as it gets. There’s nothing strong, but nothing really off-putting.
Score: 63
