Johnnie Walker Blue Label King George V Tasting note

By Miguel in Tasting , Johnnie Walker

“Tastes slightly older than Johnnie Walker Blue Label with more spices and candies notes. It is a very good whisky but hugely overpriced”

90
Johnnie Walker's Blue Label King George V
A new extension of the Johnnie Walker range for travel retail, this celebrates the first Royal Warrant granted to John Walker and Sons Ltd to supply Scotch whisky to the British Royal Household in 1934, and is apparently designed to recreate how JW might have tasted back in the day. Some Port Ellen has been used, alongside Cardhu, Lochnagar.

This dram has a amber-like color.

Nose (90): more than average. honey, spices, vanilla, floral, wood.

Palate (91): powerful, oily. candies, floral, spices, wood, ginger.

Finish (89): longer than average. honey, wood, spices.

So based on other whiskies I have already tasted I rate this Johnnie Walker's Blue Label King George V with 90 points over 100.
