    I’m super late to this video. I watched it and instantly I feel into this channel. It’s educating without being pompous. Which is super rare in ANY of the alcohol tasting realms. This is how the average Joe mixed with a developed palate would think. Instantly liked the video and right away subscribed.

      Cheers and thanks. Just keeping it real. When I first got into whiskey people around me were on the snobby side and made me feel uncomfortable. So I want others that are new to the world of whiskey to feel confident in what they like even if it’s cheap. There’s no such thing as a bad whiskey, there’s just better ones out there 🤙🥃

      @@WhiskeyQuests I can see why people are somewhat disappointed. It’s not obviously complex, but I like to think of it as “subtly complex”. I told my friend it taste like Greek mythology ambrosia haha. I would definitely spend $200 on a 750ml bottle. I loved it! The 18 year is also a good choice. I liked the Red and Black and will probably pick up a bottle of each. Wasn’t a big fan of the Gold Reserve or double black. I haven’t tried the Green label but will soon.

      I like the blue more. But id rather have them sit at under 100$ both. In Germany i pay 60€ for the 18 and 130€ for the Blue. And to me both are worth the money easily, but if Blue Label is like 10% of your earnings... well id propably just buy it every 3 years or something. Still i think 80-90€ would be more fair for the Blue Label. And maybe 43%-46% thats the biggest "downside"... because the taste to me is perfect. But it is fairly weak. I also had the Cask version.

    Great review homie! Tasting shots of double black, green, gold reserve, and might hit some of my Sexton Irish single malt, Hennesy VS, and oh crap! I finsished my Sexton single malt 😥
    All I can say right now is that reviewers always looking for the taste, but nobody is looking for the quality of the buzz.
    I definitely am in a good mood drinking the Johnnie Walker Gold with a shot or 2 of the green and some double black , but I've gotten "aggressive" with Jim Beam. MURICA! Fcuk yeah! Us Army veteran right here! Hooah! lol

      Yup it’s all subjective. And it’s more fun doing a line up like this with other people and bounce off flavors and scents of each other. I try to taste and smell different things in life. You’ll never know when a whisky will take you back to that moment. Black is popular for a reason cheaper and good flavors. You like what you like and that’s all you need.
