Johnnie Walker XR21 
DESCRIPTION:

A special edition release of Johnnie Walker, this 21 year old expression was inspired by the blending notes of Sir Alexander Walker. Featuring whisky from the extensive Johnnie Walker stocks, the XR 21 Year Old is even said to include whisky from the now-silent Brora distillery. 

TASTING NOTES:

Nose: Spiced apple, smoky oak and a little toasted brioche.

Palate: Herbal as it opens. This gives way to orange and lemon peels by the bucket-load, followed by another kick of smoky malt.

Finish: Wafts of Sherry-soaked raisins last and last.

----

Johnnie Walker 18 
DESCRIPTION:

Johnnie Walker 18 sits between gold and blue in Walker's extensive range of blends, carrying an impressive 18 year old age statement.

TASTING NOTES:

Nose: Sweet rich and deep notes with maraschino cherries, toffee caramel, vanilla, baked rhubarb crumble and a very thin whiff of smoke.

Palate: The richness continues onto the palate, which is sweet and warming, with creamy malt, oats and cereal. A spicy vanilla cinnamon dusting too with the gentle smoke again developing.

Finish: Dark chocolate with caramalised peel.

Overall: Another pleasing blend from Johnnie Walker, this is quite different from the gold label.
