Johnnie Walker Black Label is at least 12 years old and is light and smokey in style. This iconic blend traces its origins back to 1870 when it was called Old Special Highland Whisky, renamed Johnny Walker Black Label in 1909. The second from entry level expression can be sipped neat of mixed. While the Black Label is comprised of between 35 and 40 individual components, there are five distilleries that are considered its main building blocks. These cornerstones are Talisker, Caol Ila, Cragganmore and Glenkinchie for the malt portion and Cameronbridge for the grain whisky.

Whisky Magazine Tasting Notes by the late Michael Jackson (whisky writer)
Nose: Rich. Maple syrup, spices and mustard. Can a whisky have a hint of acidity on the nose? Yes, but rahter the acidity of a Lenny Bruce rather than of vinegar.
Palate: Marijuana. Big interplay of smoky dryness, spicy heat and sweetly malty, creamy vanilla.
Finish: Rounded with raisiny sherry. At length, mellow.
From The Producer
"Johnnie Walker Black Label is a true icon, recognised as the benchmark for all other deluxe blends. Created using only whiskies aged for a minimum of 12 years from the four corners of Scotland, Johnnie Walker Black Label has an unmistakably smooth, deep character. An impressive whisky to share on any occasion, whether you're entertaining at home or on a night out with friends."

Created for distribution in Canada, Japan, and the USA, the Islay Mist 8 Year Old is bottled at 40%.
Producer Description
"The iconic Islay Mist dates back to 1927 on the Island of Islay and owes its existence to a celebration which would mark the 21st birthday of the son (John Morrison, later Lord Margadale) of the Laird of Islay House. To mark such an important occasion, guests were to be invited from the length and breadth of the UK and it was considered that the signature smoky Islay whiskies might be too heavy for everyone’s taste.

The top of the line for the core Johnnie Walker Lineup. The prestigious Blue Label first entered the market in 1992. Some of the whiskies in this blend are between 30 and 35 years old and it is composed of at least 13 different malt and grain whiskies. The main distilleries in the Blue Label DNA include Linkwood, Caol Ila and Royal Lochnagar. 40% ABV.
Producer Description
"Rare casks, rare craft and rare characters combine to create a vibrant Scotch Whisky with rolling waves of flavour and an unrivalled depth of character.
We’ve honed our craft into a precision process that respects the many elements shaping a Scotch Whisky’s final flavour and character, including the type of grains and yeast used, the shape of the still, and the length of time it’s matured in the cask.
Only one in 10,000 casks – including some from long-closed ‘ghost’ distilleries – are hand-selected to craft this exceptionally smooth whisky."

The Gold Label from the Johnnie Walker line of Blended Scotch has a small but strong following, likely due Clynelish being one of its core components. The likes of Cardhu and Caol Ila also make up the base of this blend which contains a total of 14 to 16 different distilleries in its makeup. Much of the marketing talks about it being best served chilled, but that is entirely up to you. Bottled at 40% ABV.
