Blended
Scotland
Johnnie Walker Platinum used to sit between Gold and Blue in the extensive range of blends, carrying an impressive 18-year-old age statement.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Sweet rich and deep notes with maraschino cherries, toffee caramel, vanilla, baked rhubarb crumble and a very thin whiff of smoke.
The richness continues onto the palate, which is sweet and warming, with creamy malt, oats and cereal. A spicy vanilla cinnamon dusting too with the gentle smoke again developing.
Dark chocolate with caramalised peel.
Another pleasing blend from Johnnie Walker, this is quite different from the gold label.

A little expensive, BUT IT'S TOTALLY WORTH IT. Was gave to me as a gift, but it is amazing. Super sweet in a great way, and you can totally taste the Marashcino Cherries. 9/10 definitely
It's better than blue label it's a whiskey to be savoured & enjoyed it's a beautiful flavours. Mark it 10 out of 10
I've tried all the colours and this to me is the smoothest with the greatest complexity. It reminds me of the Green, which I love, but smoother. I did enjoy the blue, but didn't find it as smooth as the Platinum. The Gold Reserve was very underwhelming and even the Black has more flavour...but like all Whisky's it comes down to preference. If only it was a bit more affordable....
Enjoying the Johnnie taste profile these days. Haven't tried Gold Reserve yet, just Red,Black,Platinum and Blue and they do just get smoother and add a little character as they go up.
