Просто никакущий, при том достаточно резкий блэнд - пойло
Good for mixing in cocktails or drinking with cola, but not stellar drunk alone. A combination of the taste of alcohol with a eatery aftertaste. recommend only in extreme emergencies.
Aromatic, sweet smell.
Alcoholic
Watery
Sharp alcohol taste to go along with an otherwise thinness and lack of substance. Have had better cheap blends and other cheap whiskeys.
Cheap.
Not straight, not a sipper.
Sweet apple overpowered by alcohol
sweet apple, mostly alcohol
sharp, deadening, nothing
mostly alcohol, a little creamy honey and vanilla
Zapach not bad, smak gorzej
eigentlich gut zum Mischen und für Cocktails. pur so mittelgut.
classic scotch blend best with ice and Coke.
Smoky and vanilish. Good price.
sweet vanilla with soft smoke
nez : miel, abricot
finale court. mal équilibré
neat, 2l, pierwszy łyk z efektem grzanej rury, bez krzywienia się, z colą smakuje gorzej, potem wchodzi jak oranżada, obyło się bez kaca, na święta jak znalazł
Good for whisky - cola
der Erste Whiskey, den ich gerne pur trinke. mMn deutlich runder als die lowcost Jack Daniels und co.
I think it is an good whiskey for a beginner like me. I liked the taste that is left on the tongue
Very good.
Poor Whisky, poor finalization, tasty not good.
Poor, only alcohol
not food
As first type so tasty
A good all-rounder and a fairly gentle introduction to scotch.
Vanilla sweetness and dried fruit. All pretty standard for scotch.
Slightly heavy touch on spices, but with a good deal of sweetness and caramel. There's maybe barley in there in the taste.
Sweetness sustained. Goes gentler on the finish after a spike of spice on the palate early.
sweet, Vanila,
Good for price, but feel something wired a bit.
Smooth.
Нос яблочный, вкус нейтрально ванилен, финиш тяжёл и спиртуозен
Apple
Vanilla
Heavy
Buena relación calidad precio. Un Blended para mezcla, también con hielo.
Especias de roble dan a esta bebida su aroma primario. las notas más ligeras de la miel siguen y añaden un toque de dulzura.
Tiene una creativa mezcla de sabores, que van desde el chocolate a frutos rojos. Otros sabores incluyen miel, vainilla, especias y roble.
Deja un regusto dulce en la boca y una ligera quemadura en la parte posterior de la garganta.
Słaba whisky, czuć alkohol, słodycz taką zbyt nachalną (karmel?)
strong alcohol, not a lot of taste
A burner with some sweetness. Not my thing.
Pls try to avoid this, it’s poison.
Heavy on grain, with lots of vanilla and a dash of fruit. The finish is the least part of this blend, but overall it's very decent for the price.
Light mix flavor of chocolate and vanilla, hives and surprisingly nice flavor, not the best, but enjoyable whisky
Quite light
Strong taste to alcohol, vanilla, oak, not my favorite, but perfect for the price
Short finish, not distinctive, need some complexity
A bit sharp. Would use it as a mixer. Decent blend considering its price.
Young blended whisky.
Mellow honey, caramel and a little hay.
Malt and toffee.
Almost no smoke, a little oak and dark chocolate.
Light at the nose, honey and apple.
Red apple, vanilla and chocolate at the taste
Medium finish
Not bad
Blended whisky with smell and taste of caramel, not bad whisky but you can tadte the youngness
smell: young metal smel, pear,karamel. taste : karamell, sweet,young afthertaste karamell and youngness short finnish
smoke, grain but cheap
prima toegankelijke whiskey. niet duur en prima voor doordeweeks
Kind of sweet with taste of oak.
good household whisky
Decent whisky, not bad, but nothing special either.
годнота
Nice sweet blend.
simple blend
Non mi dispiace
Mild soft blend. Good mixing.
Otro básico como el red label, pero en este caso un blended mejor seleccionado a mi parecer. en definitiva un whisky de cabecera sin complejos.
genérico, quizás las notas afrutadas algo se dejan entrever tras un ejercicio de concentración, pero en nariz es determinantemente alcohólico
en estado puro en boca este blended es agradable, fino, con notas acarameladas quizás con un deje a canela, pero es definitiva te llena la boca y esta te pide un espacio entre trago y trago, no se.
Con agua evidentemente ganan las notas afrutadas, aquí el caramelo se me hace presente igual que la Canela y dejamos atrás el quemazón inicial
el retrogusto es corto, intenso con un sabor a ciruela, o pasas, el típico sabor a fruta deshidratada. lo que pierde en el primer impacto en boca lo gana en el retrogusto, aquí es un claro vencedor al redlabel
its oke
Als Geschenk erhalten passt mir die Flasche weder in die Sammlung noch auf die Zunge.
Als Blindverkostung hätte ich eventuell etwas objektiver gewettet und mit einiges an Phantasie vielleicht etwas blumiges und etwas Karamell gefunden.
Recht dünn und Jung mit leichter alkoholischer Schärfe.
Ich bin auch Freund eines Korkens, tut mir leid.
(könnte man auch manchen Japanern Nähe legen;-))
drinkable cheap blend. sharp wood bit sweetness some floral notes.
Muito fraco
only useful for mixing
Cheap but enjoyable. Watery at first then a bit of spice, overall it goes down well. No aftertaste at all
Nice flavour but not for everyone. Butterscotch taste. Not bad for a cheap blend.
good to mix
No bad
really spiced for 40 abv
good one
Nothing special.
Good for party.

Niet te zuipen, is goed voor in de cola
Not bad but lack of complexity: good Whisky for beginners but not very interesting flavors.
fresh bread stands out at first but makes place for honey a slight, but obviously present peat, that is not on the nose, green apple and in the finish brine, and more bread. as it sits vanilla and caramel appear. balanced, but not at all interesting, smoothest scotch I've ever tasted that has obvious peat
Great whisky!
Spritig
Moderate complexity if you are a beginner like me and just start to build a reference index.
Not too sweet, with a relatively flat profile. Easy on the bitterness and not too overwhelming.
simple and nice whisky but not interesting.
A suprise considering cheap price.
-
What a pleasant surprise! Worth twice the price; intermediate complexity with a gentle finish. Hints of smoke, peat, oak, sherry, honey, citrus and almonds. Great balance of flavors - with a touch of elegance.
Good partner, simple and cheap
Just simple
While sweet, and great in a Rusty Nail, pretty good neat. Always delivers exactly what I expect.
Whiskey, but I'm missing the scottish peaty and smoke feeling.
good whiskey for someone looking to branch out
Etwas eindimensional, aber abnehmbarer Blend
Leicht süßlich, metallisch, später etwas Frucht und ein Hauch von Rauch. Obstlernote.
Fruchtig mit Apfel und vielleicht etwas Vanille. Der Alkohol ist deutlich spürbar.
Süßlich, Getreide und wieder der Alkohol
Good cheap whisky.
The taste is sweet with side notes of caramel. Recommended for someone new to the world of whisky.
Very nice and smooth
good choice. straight, smoothy, but raw and heavy.
schöner kotgeschmack gefällt mir
Rather mellow, better used in cocktails.
some hard
great
It's allright, but I have to make cocktails out of it to drink it with pleasure.
slight after bite.
bit of spice scent
okay whiskey with a little bite. lightly oiled on the nose with hint of vanilla
Drank Ballantine's on the rocks and neat same evening as JW Double Black and much preferred this.
Mellow is the best decription of this whisky: everything is very gentle. A faint sweet nose and creamy nuttiness on the palate. Very smooth and sweet, with plenty of toffee and vanilla, and maybe just a hint of cinnamon. This flows down nicely and doesn't stick around. Not complex at all but it's still a lovely dram for a chilled evening.
Sweet, nutty, creamy.
Vanilla, honey, cream, hint of cinnamon.
Just a little sweetness.
perfect whiskey for a drinkig on a coold day
smooth and sweet
Sharp but decent, not bad for something on the lower end of the price bracket.
Smooth and gentle. Not the most unique whisky, but tasty and worthy for a good feierabend-whisky.
Sharp.
.
te sterk, mist complexiteit
Undrinkable, in my opinion. At least it's as cheap as it tastes.
Good enough to give it a try for the low price.
tikje scherp, later meer. terpentine. niet echt een definieerbare andere smaak. niet echt lekker
One of my favorite of the cheap end. Easy drinking and perfect for a warm up on a cold day.
nice for on thursday after workshop an night
it's ok
blend de base.
Nothing fine about this.
ok
For everyday use. Smooth.
Алкоголь

Sweet and smokey but rather dull.
