Johnnie Walker Black Label Extra Special 1970s Bottling (750ml) 12 Year Old, 43%

A Maltiply member's tasting notes and whisky impression.

88 / 100

the waxiness and oily notes give this blend a texture i’m drawn to, while smoke and malt keep the character grounded. the dry, smoky finish sounds like a fitting close.
