Johnnie Walker Gold Label Blended Scotch 750ml

Nose:

Opens very slowly to reveal a mass of aromas: lanolin, smoke, hessian, dried fruit, polished wood floors, oak, liquorice, cake, silky red fruit, cream.

Palate:

Hold it in the mouth and there's allspice, sultana cake, crisp malt, bung cloth, turfy smoke which builds in intensity as the whisky opens.

Finish:

Long, smoky, but also fruit pastilles.
