Johnnie Walker Double Black

Not a bad daily drink. Some barely malt on the nose with some smoke. Some sweetness that I can't quite identify- something like malted barley syrup? There is some smoke here, but it's not like peated Islay smoke. I think that the char comes through more than the smoke. There is cereal malt, but the most prominent flavors are burnt brown sugar, burnt marshmallows. There is a bit of sweetness again, like malted barley syrup. The finish is mostly the charred barrel notes. All in all, pretty decent, but I would love it if this were a bit more complex.

Nose: smoked raisins, plums, oak, BBQ sauce. Palate: smokey ash, extinguished bon fire. Juicy raisins. Finish: medium....ash, bitter oak, lingering plums and raisins. Charcoal. One of my guilty pleasures. A poor mans Lagavulin. Nice smoke/peat married with Sherry I'm guessing.... seem to come back to this one often. Smooth sipper and surprisingly oily. Nothing to complicated, just nice.

Smoke. Rubber tires. More smoke. Not for me.
