Joseph,
Complex, smooth and reasonably priced. So far, my favourite Scotch.
Burt,
Smoke and peat on the nose and palate, although lighter than some other Islay whiskies. Ron Swanson's favorite, but not mine. Good, but I prefer the Ardbegs and Laphroaigs.
Brenda,
I'm not a huge fan of scotch, because many are too smoky. This one was more flavorful and didn't taste like a liquid campfire.
Will,
Amazing!! Vanilla, raisins, chocolate and a perfect finish... love it!!
Matthew,
Good taste, smoky but not overpowering. Doesn’t blow you away but also easy to drink.
GEORGE,
This is a solid choice to me. Floral notes on the front and a hint of smoke at the end. Looking forward to seeing how Wolfburn's scotch ages in the coming years.
Lawrence,
As with all Johnnies, you still know it’s his and still only 40%. Better than the red and black but you’re only showing off that you have money and want to spend it on a Johnnie Walker. Oak. Spice. Citrus notes. Well balanced. Medium honey finish but gone too fast for the money. Still drinking a Johnnie which, if that is your man, is great.
Lawrence,
Still distinctly Johnnie base with spice and citrus. Long finish. Step up from the red though
Lawrence,
Extra star because if the story. Something I would break out for friends and a scotch club that didn’t know the story. Moving past the story it is a good scotch. Vanilla. Graham crackers. Apples and oranges.
Lawrence,
Great everyday whisky. Easy drinking. Smooth. Malty. Vanilla. Spices. Medium length
Michael,
This is scotch!! Not heavy on the peat, smooth on tongue, and proof that you don’t have to break the bank to enjoy top shelf scotch
Ethan,
Definitely needs to be cold - even cold it tastes like cough syrup
Corey,
Don’t usually like scotch, due to the campfire taste. This was more fruity than Smokey. I enjoyed it!
Brandi,
tasted fairly medicinal, not something I'm a fan of. For a walker, it wasn't bad, but it seems like it was supposed to be special and wasn't.
Daniel,
Vanilla, smoke, oak, spice. Much more flavor than the I thought after pouring into a glass. I liked this straight without ice.
Will,
Full bodied!! Sherry , chocolate and creamy!! Top 5 all-time favorites!!
Joshua,
Not a big fan of Johnnie Walker Black, the smokey taste overpowers any whiskey flavor.
Sei-IS,
I always leave room for me to find that ultimate special dram and Lavavulin gets closest of all the Scottish drinks I have tasted. This is two drinks in one, without a few drops of water it is Smokey with hidden peaty pepper on the edges of the tongue and a nose that simply delays you wanting to taste this drink.
Add a few drops of water and the smoothness of the drink rises to the front and suddently the fruit and spices become the reasons to taste this drink. With the right amount of water this becomes cream of the Isley whiskeys lifting out the taste of aromatic tea and raisins on the taste leaving the smoke to lengthen the finish that goes on... and on... and on...
Michael,
My go-to Scotch because it is uncomplicated smoothness with a hefty enough palate for me. For me, JW Blue is too far to the right (think "Heineken Light" and JW Black is unbalanced to the left (think "de-sweetened" molasses and licking an ashtray). If you don't like a lot of smoke or fruity variations you might stick to this like I do.
Philip,
A very interesting scotch. I picked up on the notes of vanilla, floral, and melon right away. It has certainly expanded my palette and has piqued my interest as to what else it out there. I enjoyed this sample alone while editing a video and I will say the glass emptied too soon.
Logan,
Smooth, lots of sherry and little to no smoke. A favorite of mine even though the price point is a little high.
Glenn,
This bottle speaks for itself. I absolutely love it.
Michael,
This is the second, and last, version of JW I am going to try. I just can't wrap my head around the blended scotch. It just doesn't have a pleasant finish. I gave it to my son to mix with Coke.
Pen,
Beautiful smooth ending. A little metallic to start, not the best bouquet.
Pen,
Very SMOKEY, heavy anise on the backend, very medicinal. Almost like drinking a humidor. Not for me.
Stefanie,
I bought this for a father's day gift so I will assume he liked it.
Chris,
Heavily smoky, deep flavor tones that blend together exquisitely. It's definitely got a decent amount of heat, but unlike some liquors where there's a bigger medicinal quality to the heat - this one is a bit more like you are inhaling a smoky peaty campfire.
John,
this is definitely a go-to bottle at this price. savory peat with a complex finish of flavors.
James,
Extraordinary taste. You can taste all the flavors with a great finish. Highly recommended even for those non scotch drinkers.
Halldor,
After a few drops of water were added, it was a really nice tasting glass!
Matt,
Heavy sherry influence and the alcohol feel is very forward. Mood related drink for me and not a regular sipping scotch but very good for price.
Susanna,
This was one of the best whiskies I have ever tasted. I would highly recommend this.
Zach,
This stuff is delicious. As much funk as a Laphroaig 10, just a lighter mouthfeel. Being that you could get 2 bottles of laphroaig 10 for one bottle of this stuff, I’d go with the Laph, but this is going to be one of my core pete holdings.
Mmm mmm mmm
