Taste: Very smooth, lots of oak, sweet smoke and honey, vanilla ice cream, chocolate.

A solid and easy whiskey. I purchased this as a gift pack that included the Black, Gold, and 18. I had never had any JW whiskey before, and blind tasted all four. I picked this as the best amongst the four, but don't feel it's that much better than the Black that I scored second best. Yet these are at polar opposite ends of the price spectrum!

This is a good whiskey, but a very poor value and therefore I would never buy this again. I actually kind of feel ripped off but to be fair, the Internet did warn me. Sometimes you just have to see for yourself what all the fuss is about.
