Tastes

the 16 is more refined but this one packs a wallop at cask strength and opens up quite nicely with a few drops of water.

candied cinnamon apples on the nose and in the finish with a little bit of heat to sizzle your palate

This was my first 'herd mentality' purchase and I regret it. It's too delicate and floral for my taste.... it has a great nose but feels thin and dry on the palate with a finish that doesn't make up for the lack of mouthfeel

the smokey notes in the nose and on the palate amplify the distinguishing characteristic of Johnnie Walker Black.... a salty campfire that just met a gust of wind. Dollar for Dollar ($30 at my discount chain club) the best blended whisky you can drink.
