Bourbon, Whisky and Scotch

Just opened a bottle of this.  It's pretty decent.

How smoky is it?

I don't remember a significant smoky flavor.  I had a glass of the Glenfidich and then this to compare.  I think this is smoother than the Glenfidich.  I'll try it again this afternoon and let you know if something sticks out.

Great stuff, have a bottle myself!  Love it.

It's not really.  This is the base scotch before the blending for Johnnie Walker so it tastes familiar if you know JW.

OK....Maybe I need to find a bottle of good JW.

This tastes nothing like the crap JW I've had.

It just amazes me that JW could make a really good Scotch if their red label is so bad.

Green Label is the absolute best IMO

Platinum/18yr is really good but Green is better

Blue is damn good, just not $200 good

 
Man, I haven't had a JW since my early 20s.  And it was red label and I thought it was good.   :lol:

 
Has anyone here had any experiences with Japanese whisky?  One of my buddies absolutely swears by it and keeps telling me to pick up a bottle of Yamazaki 12.  I'll have to hit one of the local whisky bars and try a dram or 2.
