RE: Blind tasting... Where I do agree that blind tasting is the best way to determine your favorite whisky, I believe I would be unable to achieve valid blind results on these particular Johnnie Walker expressions because of how familiar I am with each of them. In my preparation for this review (as in all of my reviews) I try the whisky multiple times over weeks/months while taking detailed notes on smell and taste. If I did this review blind I would (for the most part) be able to tell which whisky I was tasting when I was tasting it, and therefore the test would not be 100% blind/valid. In my opinion and experience blind tastings only are accurate when you have not tried the particular whisky(s) before or are less familiar with them (see my live shows or "What's the best Pappy?" review). A blind tasting will give you a one-time result on your current preference on that particular day. However, I believe trying a whisky multiple times, getting to know a whisky, eliminating variables that could effect your palate (food/drink) by tasting on different days is the best way to review a product. I have tried many whiskies and I always make unbiased honest conclusions when scoring. Cheers, Jeremy.

I like the Black, I've tried the Blue but for $300 I want to hear angels sing when I take a sip

A friend's blue label is best!

Its easy to find an expensive whisky you like. The real trick is to find a cheap one you truly enjoy.

The “lack” of finish on the Blue Label is exactly why I like it. It’s a polite whiskey ☺️

Dont drink while driving... you might spill the whiskey.

I did the taste blindfolded but after the 3rd bottle i was talking about my divorce and my alcoholism problem😁

Red Label is best if you like your whisky to taste like it was distilled through a tyre

Red label it’s for partying with your friends, when you don’t have time to smell it.

Green Label hands down. 100% malt. Age statement. Most depth, and a long finish.

I am a closet liquor snob and my prefference is for the Green. It is super dangerously drinkable and I always stock up when it is on sale. I also like to offer it to newbies as a gateway scotch. Nothing wrong with the black either, for the price it punches well above its weight.

I've tried every one of these and by far, prefer Green Label .

Him: can smell alot and different flavors. Me: i can smell alcohol alcohol and alcohol

I think the Black, Double Black, and Green are the best bang for your buck in the lineup. But I would rate the Double Black below the Black. The peat smoke in the Double Black tricks people into thinking it is a better whisky, but in reality the Black is so well rounded and balanced for what it is, plus an age statement goes a long way in terms of quality, especially in blended stuff.

Green label! Definitely. It's a blend of 15, 15 year old single malt quality scotches, 4 of them being popular and highly reviewed: Talisker, Caol Ila, Cragganmore, and Linkwood. The result when you blend high quality scotches is you get one hell of a good aged scotch blend. While there are a few more interesting scotches for a lil bit more price. Green label is still a solid 4/5 rating in my books. And reasonably priced.

I was gifted a bottle of JW Blue last week and my initial response was that of disappointment. Its so smooth there is literally ZERO alcohol burn. Which made me think its just a weak ass whiskey. Now, at 40% ABV it is pretty weak/mild but I suppose thats the point. Taste is indeed good and mouthfeel is great. After a week and tasting it a few more times I do believe it is very good, though not my favorite Scotch. That still goes to Lagavulin or Laphroaig as Im a peat lover. Dont expect Blue to blow your mind, expect it to get out of the way and give you a buzz with the least amount of interference. Thats the best way I can describe it, it just gets out of the way.

My favorite has got to be the Black Label. It has a special place in my heart: first whiskey I ever tried, we celebrated when my brother was hired for his first job! Thanks for the great and informative video.

Blue is the perfect bottle gift for thank you’s and apologizes. It’s expensive but it doesn’t feel like a bribe

every taste review video should be done blind, so we know they aren't just talking out their ass

In a wine shop Me: how much for a bottle of Blue Label bro? Salesman: 400 USD.. Me: oh that's no problem bro.. give me bottle of Bacardi though..

As a beginner I love the Black. The only thing is that it almost has no finish. Kinda what you described for the blue label. Otherwise I would preferred over the Gold and the Double Black.

Legend has it he's still waiting for that finish

Black label is the whisky that got me into whisky

IMO, Green is gives the best bang for the buck.

Green label fan! Was bummed when they discontinued it for those few years...

I never really ‘got’ whisky, which is sacrilege as I’m Scottish, but when I tried the Johnnie blue I was converted. Absolutely love it, and opened a lot of doors into the whisky world for me. The most important thing is everyone’s tastes differ, find the whisky that works for you, drink it in a way that works for you, and just enjoy it. Unfortunately my favourite just so happens to be the most expensive in the JW range :-)

I've tried a number of JW whiskies and the Black Label remains my all time favorite. A great tipple for any occasion.

Double Black is my fave in their lineup.

I have been drinking Black for many many years and find it very satisfactory. I tried Double Black when it first came out and found it superior but not always available for sale. I agree fully about Blue that it is too smooth and not worth the money. Red is really not a good drink.

Green Label is Talisker, Linkwood, Caol Ila, and Cragganmore in various percentages. No Clynelish. Green is also the best because of a lack of grain.

My favorite is definitely the Green Label. I was one of the people sad to see it go and elicited when I encountered it in my local Liquor store here in Denver. Thanks for the great lineup review!

I’ve had Red, Black, and Double Black. Favorite of the three is Double Black. But I’ll drink Red neat all day.

Out of the Walker collection Black Label is my favorite, it's so full-bodied and tasty (especially for it's price range). But outside of that Lagavulin 16, Laphroaig QC and Talisker 10 are my favorites.

I quite like the red with a good dry ginger ale, it’s a bit rough on it’s own but somehow works really well with the dry. Neat, the double black is great value.

Black Label was a favorite of Christopher Hitchens. The Blue Label tempted Leo McGarry.

Having tried all of them, the best for me is the double black.

Black or bust! Black is my fav not only because it is priced affordable, but Black is a really good sip on any given day. Good video, thanks for producing.

My favorite is the Johnnie Walker Black. Can't beat the price and definitely better than the red.

Green is the best tasting ive been drinking it for years

Excellent review! Answered every question that I ever had about Johnny Walker even though I’ve only ever had Red & Black labels. The Red is my sentimental favorite only because it was the favorite drink of my dearly departed relative who often shared his numerous in WW2 while we sipped on splashes of Red label on the rocks. Thanks for posting.

The Platinum is one of my absolute favorites, but the Green, Black, and Double Black are great choices as well. Agree with your assessment , well done.

I have been drinking double black and platinum for many years and was my favorite for many years. But recently, I tried Glenmorangie 18 yrs and what a difference. I am not going back to JW. Glenmorangie 18 or 21 is going to be my drink !!

I bought a sample pack with black through blue (no green)for an overnight train ride I was taking. Fun working through it over the 2 days. 18 and Double Black were my favorite. $40 dollars at Binnys beverage depot

Him: Smells like apple pie Me: Smells like a good time

For me Johny walker double black is best. According to it's Age, Taste & Price. Its a perfect, practical, blended scotch whisky.

I'm cognac drinker but I had Blue label from a friend and was amazed how smooth it is. I'm gonna get bottle for my bar

The green is my favorite. The the black has a place in my heart since it was the 1st bottle I bought (could afford) when I was 21 lol.

As someone who bought a mini pack of almost all of these except these for the first time,, I can say my favorite thus far was somewhere between the double black label and the gold reserve. I guess their particular tasting notes and aromas just matched well with my palate on that day better than the rest. Blue label was after those, but man, if only it were less expensive. Gold and black label were alright. I'd mark them down at the same rank as blue, but way less killer on my wallet. Red is... something I wouldn't mind mixing into stuff, but maybe not drinking straight.

Let's start with the Red. Ok... I'll give it a fair score. I can drink it. By the end: Everything except the red. It's a mixer. It's dog shit. I'm not drinking it. LOLOLOLOL

12:41 "without a doubt" scotch so good gave him a Scottish accent

I feel Green Label is the best among the range, considering the cost factor. But Red Label + Club soda is awesome if you are on a budget!!

Gold is my favorite followed by 18 and then Green. Blue is next followed by Black and then Red. I didn't like Double Black since it had too much smoke and peat. I avoided buying Red for the longest time due to negative reviews but I eventually tried it and enjoyed it.

Honestly. I love Johnnie Black. It's been my go to for years I love it neat with water and as a call brand in a blood and sand. But.....I'm so glad I live in the US B/c there is no way it's a $50 bottle.

I've had Red to Gold range but I keep going back to Double Black! I also actually prefer the Red over the standard Black.

This is awesome! Huge fan of the Green label. Appreciate the detail and the full lineup. Thanks Jeremy!

Great video sir I’m just starting my journey with this brand I’m sticking with the black 12 year old enjoying it!! 😊

Some friends and I went through the range once. Then we went a step beyond.: our favorite was when we blended the Double Black with the Blue. Combine a little more smoke with the Blue's mouth feel.

Love the green. Love the island green as well--excellent value on that one. Great review, subbed!

my review of johnny walker - nose : smells like whiskey, palate: taste like whiskey. Must drink! :) - I enjoyed this video. I drink black and blue. I can tell the difference between the two but after 5 drinks, everything taste the same.

A totally agree with your Blue and Green notes. Blue has an odd mouth feel in that it is so satin. Blue finish vanishes, and I was as surprised as you seemed to be. Great review. My only comment is that Black has a strong tanned leather note that I think needs mentioning. Maybe it's just my tastebuds, though. Green is my fav, though I haven't tried DB, 18, or Gold. Time to head to lcbo for gold to add to my collection. I see that Diageo has started putting out Mortlach again and will have to comb through your reviews after finding your channel. Cheers!

customers were right to be outraged because of discontinued green label. Its the best bang for the buck. Red is great for poisoning your enemies or removing paint.

My favorite is Johnnie Black. Never liked the taste of alcohol but the first time I tasted scotch I liked it was Johnnie Black.. I've had Red,Black, Double Black, Swing, Green and Blue but still like the taste of Black the best. Thank you for the video it was enjoyable. Hope I win

I have a fondness for the black label because it was the first scotch that I ever tried.

Haven't got into too many scotches yet. Been eyeballing a Johnny walker to try for the price after this video I'll skip red and start with black. Great review.

As an Expat who works and travels around the world, we drink Double Back, unless some one else is paying then it is Blue :)

Agree that Blue Label is OVERPRICED ... but if you happen to have the opportunity to sip it.. JUST ENJOY IT because it's GREAT!! Then, for a daily basis I settled in the Double Black. Cheers!!

I drink blue label for special occasions. Its very smooth. I buy it on sale though. 149 at Costco. Very good deal! A restaurant near me charges 42$ a shot! I might as well buy the bottle :p

My favorite is the Green, I noticed they used Taliskers in the blend, but I buy the double black far more often just because of the price. The 18 year old is a close third mainly cuz I am cheap

My fav Johnnie Walker overall is definitely blue label and black label as a runner up.

Blue too expensive for me, not a fan of the Gold and will only have the Red with coke (coca-cola not cocaine).

I'd have to agree the green is the best value. But if you want to ease into peated Scotch, double black is a fine start.

For me, the Green is usually my go-to out of the range. Just drinking the 200 Celebratory Blend and it’s superb. Cheers.

I have tried the black, double black, and green. All great. Green is lovely and smooth.

My go to whiskey has and always will be JW Black Label, whereas on special occasions it was always Blue Label but that changed since Platinum 18 hit the market... Raise Your Glass Gentlemen to your favorite JW!🍷🥂🍷

I have all the flavors except double black and 18 year old but will try them Thank you I also notice you like the black and blue the most

For me the best Johnnie Walker price-quality-ratio is the Blender's Batch Red Rye finish. Great stuff for 30 € and you probably get it much cheaper outside Finland. Otherwise I dont buy much Johnnie Walker-products because there are much better options for the same price.

Every second of watching your reviews is worthed👌🏻👌🏻 and how you organize your review is very easy to remember even after a while. Great job✌🏻

I find all of them amazing especially if they’re free.

Double black and green are my fave. Swing is my favorite cheapo.

My fvrt blue and black label

When I smell the oak smoke in my double black it take me to the places I want go for free !!

You made my mouth water! Double Black- never tried it but will now. Thanks!

Nice review. The whole lineup is fairly diverse. My two favs are green label (always in the cabinet) and the 18 year old for various occasions. I find those two to really be up there for blends, even beating out the blended single malts, like Balvenie doublewood and Macallan triple cask. Both of which I like very much. Throw in some Japanese whiskeys, and the competition gets stiff. Hibiki harmony is another good one, too.

Regarding value for money Green is the best. Otherwise, Blue is in a league of it’s own! *A friendly advice: if you like red go for rehab!

you didn't require a chaser for all those tastes? legend

Normally get laughed at for drinking scotch at such a young age, my favourite walker has to be probably green, not too cheap not too expensive and can happily sip that all night, find it refreshing without a mixer

Great overview and I'd have to agree. For my budget and my tastes, the Black Label is my go to. Green if I'm in a more fruity mood and 18 if I'm splurging.

My favourite is black but red the best value despite the haters. Much better than a lot of other whiskys in the price range.

Nice and spot on. Only the Blue, it has the most oak, smoke taste and it goes down so smooth, kinda disappears...then smoothly raises up again. That is what I find most distinctive for the blue. Regardless, its too expensive.

Great reviews...like you said the Red is supposed to be mixed. Overwhelming citrus if it’s not. Green has always been my favorite in the lineup

I'm a real big fan of the Green Lable!

I have tried them all and my favorite is the 18.

Quick answer: Green Label

Gold and Green are my favourites. Thanks!

Now do this blind folded and see if you arrive at the same numbers

Just caught the review, love the whiskey. I’ve only had the red, the black and the rye. Have to say the black label is the best!

if u watch this while eating dry food, its oddly satisfying

I prefer the Double Black or the 18 year old Platinum myself. I don’t care much for Red, except when mixed; as you astutely pointed out, it’s best when mixed. Black is one I’ll mix with soda as opposed to drinking it neat. The Double Black’s smokiness makes it a neat sipper for me. I did not realize that the 40% ABV was a result of dilution with water. That explains why I never have been impressed with any of the Johnny Walkers neat WITH a splash of water. It appears it’s already bottled that way. lol 😆All in all, the two I mentioned as my winners with Black as a distant third, are my go to Scotch is because of their ubiquitous nature. That does not mean a better grade or more peat and smoke endued Scotch is not worthy of my consideration. The ones I enjoy are just not found unless I’m frequenting a higher end establishment. As a musician playing in local clubs, the better Scotches are not always available.

I haven't tried any of the higher end offerings, but I think my favorite is double black. Once in Vienna I found a bottle of red for only 10 Euro. Naturally I snapped that up, even though it's pretty harsh, and having it went completely against the rules of my study abroad program.

You have inspired me. Today I will make my own degustation - Red -> Black -> Double Black -> Gold -> Green - 18YO -> Blue.
