Johnnie Walker Green Label 15 Blended Scotch Whisky

 

The first segment(Mostly not available on google search)

Occasions, tips, alternates, cocktails, food pairings, SJ's Rating, Feel. 

SJ's Rating- Top Shelf 
Smooth as velvet! This blended scotch is balanced & gives single malts a run for their money. A Higher ABV of 43% gives it a bolder flavor than your regular blended scotch.
Occasion- Friends get together
SJ's Pro tip- #1 Great for summer days
                      #2 Try Green label first before trying JW Platinum
Alternates- Teacher's highland cream has the same ABV, equally if not better & much cheaper
Cocktail- Highball
Food Pairing- Dim sum, Boiled fish with rice. The light and smooth whisky went perfectly to wash down spicy Chinese food. 





Feel(After tasting)- Bright & Refreshing 🌞🌻

The second segment(Technical details that are mostly available on a google search)
I have already covered Johnny walker's other expressions in my previous blogs.

JW Green, reads the product story " A harmonious blend, created with only Single Malt whiskies including Talisker from Isle of Skye for its intense smoke & spiciness. Linkwood from Speyside for freshness and vibrancy, Cragganmore which brings fragrance and maltiness and Caolia from Islay for its big maritime character." A product story that actually makes sense and is true! I attest to each word in this story 😀. 
Other interesting facts- JW Green Label is matured for at least 15 years in European or American Oak. The blend of four distinct single malts creates magic that is not possible with one Single Malt Whisky alone.
