Johnnie Walker Black Label 12 Year Old Blended Scotch Whisky Discovery Set

Johnnie Walker Black Label 12 Year Old Blended Scotch Whisky Discovery Set is a tasting flight: a 750 mL of twelve-year Black Label at 80 proof, plus 50 mL minis of Double Black, Gold Label Reserve, Aged 18 Years, and Blue Label. Black is the four-corners 12-year; Double Black leans on west-coast peat and extra-charred oak; Gold is built for honeyed Clynelish fruit; the 18-year marries eighteen malt and grain whiskies; Blue takes one cask in ten thousand, including ghost-distillery stock. Pour it when you are sipping with friends.

Start on Black's sweet fruit, vanilla, and cloak of smoke. Double Black turns up peat, clove, and dried fruit. Gold Label Reserve is heather honey, tropical fruit, and creamy vanilla. The 18-year shows stewed fruit, almond, and tangerine with only a wisp of smoke, and Blue closes the flight on honey, hazelnut, dark chocolate, and a long, velvety smokiness.
