Love the idea of the whisky progression chart. +1 for Rex (People's Champion Mooch)

Found this channel over the summer just looking for a whiskey review. I then started at episode #1 and have slowly been working my way through them. It has been fascinating to watch things progress, to see the subscribers and commenters grow, and just become more and more entertained by you guys. I have not commented before, but had to after this episode. A friend of mine and I watched Frisky Dingo many years ago and continue to this day to amuse ourselves with random quotes from the series. I have never run into anyone else that has ever heard of the show, much less quotes it. You are truly gentlemen of distinction. Boosh! (and/or Kakaw)

Awesome! Grateful to have you here!

i just opened my first bottle of double black. it's been sitting on my shelf fo nearly 2 years, when first tryed it (just getting into wiskey) i thought it was terrible. now (2 years later) leasurely enjoying straight laproaig and the like i tryedit again and it was fucking amazing! love it! ideal for during a gaming session or something where you want something to keep you sharp but not distract you to much either. anyway. thank you gentlemen for explaining so much of the world of wiskey. Greetings from holland, Nick

Thank you, guys. Great review of Double Black Whiskey! Bravo!! The first ounce, when we met, didn’t go in Absolutely, but then I tasted it “Outright” ... I went in in balance with lightly salted salmon. I am delighted! Greetings from Russia!!! Thank you for the review and introduction to this good whisky.

Loved the vid! Dude that frigging jacket, robe or whatever is THE BEST!

I've been watching these videos almost non stop, this is one of my very favorite openings. " Cream. No. CREAM! NO! CREEEEAAAAAM! NOOOOOOO!"

HI guys, love your channel,i just started drinking whiskey and the first one that i tasted is JW double black and i just love it, what other similar whiskeys would you recommend me that are similar to double black? Thanks

The birth of the “bottle-down” song😂🤣😭 soon you two will be songbirds...my gift is on the way🧔🏽😎

"It disappears quickly" is incredibly accurate. I usually go through any given bottle in about 3 to 5 months, my Johnny Walker has lasted me less than a month and a half

in joy the video thank for the laughs any tips on a good whisky to share with good friends and good food

I for the first time just bought a bottle of johnny walker red label blended whisky. Man is this a delicious whisky. I will be buying this stuff again. Man i love this whisky.

i want you to try this it is awesome take everclear and use it as a high wines for a wiskey blend

Yes! Frisky dingo is hilarious. Plan on getting this bottle for my next scotch

Gents , what you are tasting is double black and not black.

@@ROBERT-ml7ml Double black is very similar to the Black Label, basically the same whiskies, but in different proportions. So one who tastes one believing it to be the other and not noticing the difference isn't that big of a deal at all. I can tell them apart, but those are two of the couple dozen bottles I have in my collection, so I have them pretty regularly. Not the case with Daniel and Rex, who seldom have any Johnnie Walker.

I received a bottle of Johnnie Walker Green around 10 years ago from some co-workers. This was long before I started down the path into the wonderful world of whisky, so I just put it away and forgot about it. This episode reminded me that I had it and prompted me to go open it! As I’m new to the whisky world, I would love to know your thoughts. I picked up coffee initially and a slight bit of chocolate. What else should I be looking for in this blend? By the way, my wife thanks you both for making her holiday gift decisions for me much easier now. Keep up the great work!

One of my fav episodes!

I just caught that amazing Mooch moment. Rex"I remember that being friendlier " Daniel "No this is punchier, You read comments while I pour some" Rex looks at camera with raised eyes. Must learn from the master

So I picked up a Black Bottle earlier this week due to your recommendation back in episode 45 as an entry into smokey/peated whiskey. While it is more "complicated" than most of my prior whiskey experience, I don't find it to be exactly "challenging" or "aggressive" like you have described. Does that mean I'm ready to venture into some of the Islay SM like Ardbeg or Laphroaig?

@WhiskeyVault

No, Black bottle is about 25% down the path of a true Islay. But don't let that stop you. Hit up the Laphroaig 10 next, and jump straight into the deep end.

Johnnie Walker Black was the first whisky I ever tried. Sneaking it from my parents liquor cabinet when I young and I remember enjoying it immensely! Thank you for the video, its good to know that even my dumb adolescent self had taste.

where did you get that jacket ,

Just tried it today for the first time. If you’re an Islay-lover on a budget, double-black is the absolute bomb! Not very complex but smoke for days!

I always get sweet buttery silky toffee notes from JWB but never seem to pick up those smokey peaty flavors that some people get all the time in the aroma.. Its an totally unique whisky that gives different levels of satisfaction to everybody that chooses to drink it..

This is a 4 year old video and so is your comment but... they keep saying black label in the video when what they are tasting is double black label which is a more of a peaty blend compared to the black label blend.

I have to say that the announcement of a Rex controlled channel made me so excited, and it lived up to the expectation.

Have you guys tried the Corsair Triple Smoke? I'd be interested to hear what you think from someone who tries a lot of both bourbon and scotch (I realize it is neither).

I like that this leaves a slight char of campfire on the tongue in the aftertaste for me. Probably due to the charred barrels but this one is definitely my favorite Johnny Walker so far.

Greetings gents from Johnnie Walker’s home town, I’ve caught several of your interesting posts, have you ever tried Glenkinchie ? A fine Lowland single malt, best regards. JW

I tried the double black once. It was nice. But my tastebuds prefer the regular Black Label. As much as I love Lagavulin 16 as my all time favourite single malt, And as much as I enjoy Chivas Regal 18 yr old for its smooth and rich flavour, my go to blend that I enjoy on a regular basis is JWBL. It's readily available in any bar I go to, and it's also always stocked in my home. I love the uniqueness of all these scotches, but I'm pragmatic and say make one of the most accessible brands your go to because you'll never find yourself without an option when enjoying socially

Yeah, I think I agree on the black. Blue is a classic. I totally understand why it's become a staple. That's how I roll as well. at home I keep a decanter that rarely changes and one bottle that I'm "testing" and replace every 2 or 3 months.

Double black is a great blend in my opinion, but my issue with it is that it loses steam after you open the bottle. If you leave the bottle open and it lasts more than a week, the smoke and iodine notes (what you’re paying for) basically fade away. So I guess you should finish it in less than a week?

Couple questions for you after this episode. First, I don't have a lot of experience with Johnny Walker but want to include it in my repertoire. What's a good label to start with and can you suggest some others to follow it with? Second, I wondering how the barrel ruined the Blendageddon? I'm guessing you thought the barrel would marry the whiskeys together better, which is what I would think too. What happened?

Need a simultaneous review of all JW blends

Read the article in the link.

Double Black doesn't have an age statement. It's not 12 years as you stated. The Black is 12 years.

Damn, I just bought this bottle today, and taste it, its really great, Ive been hearing it was in caramel direction so I was hesitating and No I really like it, its smokey and has character, but as this guy says, after a few sips, its SUPER creamy, almost as whip cream, I still like it though, its diferent, I wasnt expecting that cream side, I like green label better just because I like dry stuff, but its great

I completely agree with Rex for the creamy finishing..

Double black was introduced in believe in 2009.

I came for a review of the Double Black, but Daniel is giving all the background information of the Black "it was released in 19'o'something" and "12 years old". Now I just want to know how long it will take for them to figure it out. Will they? Keep watching and find out!

Have you guy done a review on johnny Walker Black label (not Double Black)? Also I couldn't find Laphroaig 10 year old. What?

Hey guys, love your channel. I'm a bit puzzled by this review, though. You are talking about the Black Label 12 Years Old, however, the bottle shown is Double Black?? These are two very different blends from JW. What gives?

Was this black label or double black?

It is creamy! I agree! And it's just friggin' great Scotch for the price. Black Bottle is actually my No. 3 after JWB & JWDB. I agree with Rex, I don't think BB is more "challenging" than DB, DB has a bit more smoke on the palate, but it's far from "challenging" unless you are comparing it to a "Sherry Bomb". BB goes down easy, there is nothing "bad" about it, it's something I get when I don't feel like spending an extra 10 or 15 to go with the JWB or 2B.

So glad I found the origins of this tradition 🤣🤣

I like the pop and crack of a fresh bottle.

You keep calling it Black Label when its Double Black, and such a difference between the two! Still love the show, and Double Black, I've also noticed the Double Black from Duty Free far deeper and smokier than the normal North American retail market.
