Hailing from hand-selected, rare casks, Johnny Walker Blue Label Scotch attempts to merge the sweetness of Eastern distilleries with the smoky atmosphere of those in the Western region. The effort succeeds mightily, allowing the smooth texture to come through courtesy of the extra time that's needed to distill it. The slow method of production is also evident in the first taste that hits the palate, an intense and deep sensation that begins with the first drop. To get the most out of that feeling, it's best to sip some ice water shortly beforehand to make sure you possess a cool and refreshed palate. That way, you'll be able to feel the wave of flavors that take over before closing with a combination of pepper and smoke topped with spice.
