John Walker & Sons Celebration Blend

This is an extraordinary blend, rich in taste and the finish is endless.

It's bottled at 51%, and a rule of thumb with whiskies is that- the higher the alcohol content it's bottled at, the better the alcohol attaches and holds onto the flavours. Regulars are bottled at 40% or 43% for example.

Now, this blend has grain whiskeys, so this is not on the Johnnie Walker Green Label malt-blend level.
However, this one is exceptional in taste.

I am not going into details on the nose or taste, as everyone perceives it differently.
-Nose: rich honey, sticky syrup, green apples, red apples
-taste: nutmeg, honey, concentrated apple juice

I drank it is small small sips, yet the flavours and the development is endless. The flavours literally comes in waves. 30 seconds after swallowing, a development of sour apple juice with sweet nectar appears on the tongue.

Do note, I tried it neat and also with a few wee drops of water.
It tastes fabulous when consumed neat IMO.
