If you're hoping to go cheap for a good quality bottle of blended Scotch, look again because it's true - you get what you pay for. I did a blind taste test with other Scotches and this White Label was an obvious negative stand-out due to its lack of character and depth. The nose hits you with a whiff of smoke and peat, and when you taste the dram, you get a mixed bag of sour and bitter notes with a hint of sweetness that diminishes rather quickly. I've seen reviews where this whisky is praised for its value and versatility; however, I'm finding it hard to see what the hype is all about. Perhaps one may enjoy this as a sipper, but it's a hard pass for me. NOSE: Orchard fruits, light peat, light smoke, medicinal herbs PALATE: Charred wood, brine, sour plum FINISH: Light peat, bitter melon, cherry Rating: 70/100 Grade: C- Not good – nearly undrinkable, wonder why the hell they made it.
