I had this at a tasting a while back and didn’t even want to swallow it. The rest of the glencairn went right into a bucket. I put it in as an example in my scale, but when I wanted to link them out to reviews it became time to get a mini and do it. So here it is. How much do I like or dislike it when focusing on it?
Johnnie Walker Gold Label Reserve, Scotland Blend, 40% ABVMinutia: Neat in a glencairn.
Color: Deep copper, 1.0.
Nose: Vague honey, a bit grassy.
Taste: Weak sweet malt, low spice.
Finish: Weaker version of taste.
While I wouldn’t call it absolute trash, it’s on the lower side of mediocre. It doesn’t offer anything in a big way, and the palate is just so uninspiring and dancing between neutral and unpleasant.
Score: 47
