Ok this is new... a travel exclusive release, triple cask matured, NAS expression called Black Label. If i have to say something about JW is that they just love to trick their costumers. They have black label 12yo, Jane Walker (same black label), doble black, black label triple cask. Can you get a little original?
Well, at least the whisky was fine. A blended scotch, cheap, but delivers. Bottled at 40%abv, colored.
Spoiler: this is a vanilla yogurt.
On the nose, super sweet. Vanilla, lots of it, pure sweet vanilla. Plums. Floral. Cheap perfume. Vanilla cream with a little citrus note coming up.
On the palate: guess what? Vanilla. Vanilla cookies. Cookie dough. Super sweet and straightforward. Aftertaste has a ginger spiciness going on, its decent.
Overall, this is the easiest drinkable dram ever, very very straightforward and sweet but you can give it to anyone and they will probably like it. Nothing to die for, it screams "american white oak" everywhere so that's that. 80/100.
