Blended
Scotland
Originally released to the travel retail market, Double Black combines the rich, malty flavour of Black Label with slightly peatier whisky and casks that were more heavily charred. The result is a toasty, smoky whisky with Johnnie Walker's usual rich, malty core.
Slightly smoky and almost medicinal on the nose, it offers up hints of vanilla, a little tar, a touch of barbecue sauce, citrus and malt.
Good body and very creamy with a sublimely malty core. It offers up a surprising level of peat smoke which works really well. Creamy sweetness, hints of soft wood smoke, salty butter, custard and cereal grains.
Good length with notes of malt, boiled sweets, black pepper and cool smoke.
Love this lable
Best one after Blue Label.

I found this Scotch to be creamy with a hint of caramel and slightly smoky. For those who can't withstand the Smokey nature of Lagavulin this is a good starting point. It is a nip that is addictive. My advice for beginners is a little more ice than usual. Overall it is a decent Scotch that isn't standard and will test a novice palate.
I love it read reviews and some whisky snobs abound, but I choose my own opinion and love it I normally drink blended whisky with a mixer but this is great straight which really surprised me, try it for yourself if you like smokestack peaty flavours, :):):)
