Blended
Scotland
Johnnie Walker Red Label Whisky was created 1909 and is a classic blended whisky, a great mixer and back bar favourite.
A surprisingly rich, aromatic nose with heather honey, mixed peels, soft smoke and rum spice.
Cedar wood, oak and butterscotch, aniseed, Christmas cake and malt.
Long, spiced nose with smoke on the tail.
Stay away from this, I like my whisky but couldn't drink this. I'll keep it and give it to my brother in law
I like smoky and smooth scotch. For that, Johnny Walker Red is a good bargain and quite satisfying - especially with a little ice.
At 92 yrs old I have drunk a lot of good Whiskey and this is up there and finest. Smooth and Elegant. Congratulations. Bill Sutton. (Scot, now living in Canada)
The taste is weak and is not comparable to Chivas 12 YO or JW Black Label. Any how fair enough for cocktails and new beginners to blended whisky.
The taste is unusual, not a generic 'whisky taste' that you might expect from a cheap blend. There is some peat, lots of pear and it is actually good enough to sip. The finish is very honeyed. For the money, this has to be considered a bargain, and could give many entry-level malts a serious kick up the backside.
