Horst is so mindful of his words. Never disrespects any brand or product no matter what it is. Stays objective and factual, that's why his opinion is valuable.

Horst's face at 10:29 tells you everything you need to know

First time me and my friends drank this bottle I remember we jumped over a school fence to play football around 1 am lol

Sir Winston Churchill drank this!

i'm drinking the red alone so i turned on youtube and tried them with these folks. i agree for the cheap whisky, it's worth it to do the black as a minimum baseline. much easier to drink.

When he said his name at the start the captions say "going horse cleaning" lol

Your like 21 year royal salute and your son is like red label

I used to really dislike this blend, but after coming back to this one a few years later, I've actually come to like it quite a bit. Quite nice on the rocks...

I love seeing experts taste the more pedestrian whiskies!

I love these videos with your son. Father and son bonding over whisky. Splendid.

Horst, you and your son are a joy to watch.

Lovely on the rocks, I can’t get enough of the stuff.

Great...now I'll never be able to watch a movie without thinking about what direction they're walking. :D

The nose...look at Horst's expression at 9:00. Geez.

i like the smokiness, but the after taste isnt too pleasant--it tends to hang at the back of ur tongue. honestly isnt that bad. yes, its better as a mixer, but if you always drink ur liquor neat and want something cheap, red label is a decent choice.

The Red Label is for those who want an inexpensive whisky for mixing cocktails. It is not a sipping whisky. Since I enjoy good whisky neat, I stick to the Black Label, Green Label, and the occasional Blue Label.

Red should only be used as a mixer period.

It's not meant to be drank in that way. It is supposed to be mixed with coke, ice, ginger ale or whatever you like to mix whiskey with. A lot of single malt whiskeys which cost much more would disappear if you add a teaspoon of water.

Watching his Black label review got me excited to try it. I enjoyed it and these reviews.

Red label is the Johnnie you drink with a mixer only. Personally, I only drink the double black on the rocks in the Johnnie Walker range.

Wow! I never thought I'd see the day that you would do Johnny Walker Red. But I get it. :)

Getting back RED LABEL.. my initial bottle to start my foreign blend before starting ISLAY single malts..

The Famous Grouse is good but I can't seem to find it around my area. I also love Speyburn 10 but that's even harder to find. All that said I settled for JW Red this weekend and with a few drops of water it ain't bad at all.

I drank red label now . It's like Jack Daniels no7 the tatse as well as the smell . Have anyone feel like the same ???

I am drinking that now thats.my favorite

I like Benedikt, he is witty and funny, but as he ages, I hope he gets a bit of his father Horst's respect for the Red Label!

07:35 how the senior stops the junior, demonstrates 😂

This is a beautiful bottle, but the whiskey inside is horrible 4/10

I normally drink bourbon, but in my quest to discover other whisky, I picked up a small 200ml bottle of Johnnie Walker Red Label. Cheap, entry level Scotch for a first timer. I couldn't believe how much I loved it! The sweet smokiness was like an orgasm in my mouth. If cheap Scotch is this good, I can't wait to see how amazing the high quality stuff is. I will be going back to my liquor store for a full size bottle of Red Label, as well as a bottle of 12 year Dalmore and several vintages of Glenfiddich I wanna try. Any other suggestions? I really love the smoky flavor, and want to try others like it.

Taxes here in India are so bad on alcohol, this bottle costs now $30 for 750 Ml bottle

To the experienced whisky drinker this is pretty unimpressive. As a money making product for Diagio it's outstanding. I would also add that there are a number of malt whisky distilleries that owe their existence to Johnnie Walker and for that reason we should be happy for its ongoing popularity.

Sounds like you pulled a Louis van Gaal at the end there, caught me by surprise lol Good review as usual

Its aged at least 3 years. (Printed very small on the back label)

wonderful whisky with the right amount of water,,snobs would not know

Have you tried a few drops of water?

The most basic but alright whisky on the market £16 in the U.K.

Greetings from Newfoundland, Canada! Great work guys! Horst, you are quite funny!

I've only ever had one bottle of this - about 5 years ago - but I thought it was decent value for money. Better than most cheap blends.

Great whisky as an alternative to a single malt if you cannot afford the best. I drink it regurlarly mixed with a dram of water.

I actually think it’s a great whiskey for the price. Personally I would drinks this on the rocks to tame it a bit, take off some of its rough edges.

red label is for mixing , black label is for sipping

A really good blend for the money i would say

Like the two-person interaction. Keep up the good work!

It is exeptable. A bit to strong on the leathery side, but it is good for mixes.

i remember buying a bottle of this and not being able to stomach it so i looked up reviews to convince me to drink it. when i got this one i pretty much just laughed myself through the bottle lmaoo. shit taste terrible but these guys made it fun!

@14:15 "stay healthy stay horny" hahah

Hey if it gets you drunk then it’s obviously doing it’s job no matter the price. During lockdown this is gold.

Great review. JW Red is not nearly as bad as some pretentious "connoisseurs" make it to be. It is a simple and somewhat rough whisky, but it is also flavorful. It can cope with ice, has a high malt content for a cheap blend. It doesn't "get lost" in a cocktail. Coats the mouth nicely. This whisky is made for mixing. I would not drink it neat, but it makes a refreshing highball. Just add ice and soda water. The current version relies on Talisker for that smoke, besides Coa Ila . Talisker also, accounts for the paper flavor.

Can someone please tell me why this whisky does not have a proper cork, instead its screw cap, its it because its a bad whisky for the money? :/ if so i am sad because I like Johnnie Walker Red Label

Instead of buying a Johnnie Walker Red, for $5 CAD more ($50,25 instead of $44.75 for the Red), I always go for Aberfeldy 12 !

Horst, You're JW King George 5th. Thank you.

Burnt Rubber is spot on 11:21

Please do a blind tasting.

It tastes like freaking shoe leather

It's not the worst blend. But it's very, very close...

My review is : I didn’t like the taste. It’s not smooth. It’s bitter. No headaches. But since it’s not smooth or pleasant , I won’t try it again. I have other alternatives which are great in taste. Rating 5/10. You taste it first time , your expression will be like this 10:29

back in the 88-90's it tasted better and even had the same color as jwb ,light amber gold not the redish copper coloring you find in all brands today

what you should be doing with all whiskies to give them a fair shake and allow them to bring out there best is to remove a few onces and let some air in the bottle the day before you do a review then pour a glass from that bottle and let it sit a 15 minutes, you are gettting a bad first impression from a first pour right after cracking the bottle open

I thought this was going to be the JW red rye finish then!! Please review this new release!

it s like drinking zippo lighter fluid.God damn.

Actually there is an age statement on the bottle it's just in very small writing on the back I don't know exactly where on the back you have to find it but it's in very small lettering like I said it says aged for at least 3 years so that whiskey actually is age for at least three years before they put on the shelves

Lovely review about my favorite drink .. Dear Ben and Dear Horst...

So had my first red label yesterday. The overpowering taste and smell of oak barrels and smokiness is too much for me. Not sweet, not fruity. Quite a ruff taste.Paid 13 euros for a 0.7 litre bottle. My rating 2.5/5.

Ballantines Finest. Same price. Huge difference. Much better!

Ben came of as a whisky snob. Johnny Walker is the #1 selling whisky in the world and as such it deserves respect. Horst took a different tact, it must be judged for what it is, but it should always be repected.

Currently testing it .similar to black label but less smokiness and less spicy

I love GREEN and BLACK.. Cheers mate...

Where can we in the United States purchase your whiskey glasses? I've watched your videos for a long while and seen them and tried to find them online. I cannot however:(. I would love a set of them!

It'd be interesting for you guys to do some blind tastings

In Australia Johnny Red, if it's on special, is usually around $45+ for a 700ml

Never seen him diss a whiskey as much as this one, JW red certainly is the lowest rung.

Scotch and Amaretto is a “Godfather” and Vodka and Amaretto is a “Godmother”. Johnnie Walker Red Label is very good with Amaretto.

This whiskey should not exist

I just found that out the other night it's on there though if you have problems reading you should use glasses to find it but it's on there sometimes you need to use a flashlight cuz the writing is really dim and small but it's there

Paddy Famous Grouse or Teacher's are much better and cost less or same as Red label

First video in a long time without the quick preview at the start. Might say something about what they thought of the whisky haha

Dewars is cheaper here and so much better, honestly Dewars is hard to beat for a blend under $30

Could you please do a review of the Naked Grouse in English please?

Next week: Lidl own brand? Or perhaps not. ;-)

🤣🤣🤣🤣 the face killed me

I bought a bottle the other day on a whim. I disliked it so much I poured it on the ground in my fire pit. I see a fair amount of people here like it, so more power to them, but I won’t be buying it again.

JW red is not whisky, it's pond water mixed rubbing alcohol

thank you for another great video! liked to see both of you on the same video (although I think the single person video has more value, but this was good for a change). keep up the great work!

This is why people hate whisky,... They tried JW Red or Jack Daniels and think thats the taste of whisky. Including my dad and some friends. When my dad tried some real single malt, he actually liked it.

Thanks for the review

And if you can't find it on the bottle it's on the internet you can look it up

this makes me laugh every time

JW Red is the absolute worst whiskey I've every had. Smells like band-aids and/or other medical supplies. Can't even mix this down to mask that funky taste.

Red Label is nasty alone. It must be mixed with cola.

Watching reviews after buying a bottle xD. Nice job me... It's shit for sipping, but actually, it works rather well for in some coke!

Holy s*** it only took around 12 minutes to get to the actual review 🤨

Whiskey Dictionary got a lot of hate for saying JWRL is bad but these guys share the same feeling. It,s widely known that it's trash.

This is lower than entry level. It can potentially repel people from going into whiskey. I would say Monkey Shoulder or Teachers would be entry level for affordable blended. Glenmorangie would be entry level for single malt.

Let us hope we are all walking from left to right

These whiskeys are good for mixing. For neat, minimum i will drink js black label.

They are correct, Red Label is just a whisky, thats it ..

I never liked red label. It always tasted almost salty to me. Glad i was right.

But that's only for the red label the Black Label is different they use more single malt scotch then grain scotch but it's all 12 year old instead of three but that's the only difference

Making this comment at the beginning before I watched it almost looks like Ben is mad at the thought of drinking this.

I just bought some Johnnie Walker Red Label. First time trying a scotch. It tastes odd, not at all what I was expecting. I'm used to the taste of bourbon and Rye whiskey so this if a little off putting. Feel like I wasted my money. Oh well, at least I'm getting drunk.
