Johnnie Walker is one of the most famous brands in the world of blended Scotch whiskies. Each marque has its own color designation, from red, to black, to green and then gold. At the pinnacle of the Johnnie Walker line is the exceptionally well regarded Blue Label blended Scotch whisky. Each bottle of Johnnie Walker Blue Label comes in its own silk-lined box, with a certificate of authenticity and a unique serial number on each bottle. Luxury, exclusivity and quality are implied by the presentation, and the contents of this bottle do not disappoint.
Nose
On the nose, Johnnie Walker Blue Label offers up nosegay of floral notes, dried lavender, roses and rununculas predominate. Notes of leather, raisin, lemon peel, Seville orange and pipe tobacco emerge with time.
Body and Palate
Johnnie Walker Blue Label is a rich, full bodied and mouth-coating whisky. Dried plum, tobacco, cedar wood shingles and hints of toffee are at the forefront of this whisky. As it caresses the palate, orange marmalade, rose petal and brown sugar flavors peek out from behind a curtain of soft smoke.
Finish
On the finish, Johnnie Walker Blue Label delivers what every super-premium Scotch whisky should, complexity and elegance intertwined. Big smoke notes emerge to clear the earlier fruit notes off of the palate with more cedar and tea spice notes at the end. This is a long, lingering finish that true whisky enthusiasts will find immensely satisfying.
Johnnie Walker Blue Label is an expensive whisky. It is a special occasion whisky that delivers exactly what one would expect from a whisky of this caliber and price tag; a memorable experience. Johnnie Walker Blue Label is one of the greatest blended Scotch whiskies in the world and comes highly recommended.
