Nose has a peat and honey sweetness. Rich, slightly oily texture which slowly grows to a bite. The peaty oak taste comes out on the finish leaving the palate with smoke, tar, vanilla, honey mixed with spicy black pepper. A balanced, well-blended malt with a slight sophistication of a single malt. Johnnie Walker has always been a favorite and was the gateway scotch the started me on my quest. [85/100]. [Opened: Always]
