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.
OK. Black Label far better value. Stick to the single malts- £40 Islay malt 100x better.
Prefer it over the Gold and Double Black (which I find far too smokey). A good step up from Black to have on more important occasions (or among better company).
Delicious.
No hints of cherries, chocolate, vanilla, toffee or any of the mentioned tastes as described on the nose or palate, however a delightful and enjoyable whiskey. Would Recommend
very good.
