Is Johnnie Walker Red worth getting or should I skip straight to Johnnie Walker Blacked?
>>21689054cheap burbon is better than cheap whiskey. drink jim beam or pay more for johnnie walker black
>>21689058Bourbon is whiskey.Johnnie walker is scotch (which is also whisk(e)y)
>>21689060it's a type of whiskey, but you know what I mean
This stuff is for people who don't know better
>>21689054Neither is worth the cost.
>>21689063I drank it with my coworkers to flex I can drink piss that tastes like a shoe. Everyone else spit it out. It's gross. Black is much better but priced about 2x what it's worth.
>>21689054My whiskey society did the full line up and most everyone preferred green label.
>>21689054It's good with cola.
>>21689054For me, it's Jane Walker Blacked
>>21689091Because green label is a blended malt, everything in it is a single malt and at least 15 years old.Red/Black/Gold/18(Platinum)/Blue are all blends of both single malts and single grain whiskeys.
>>21689054jhonny is a sure bet, red is for regualr weekend, black is for celebration, and above, well, for when you want to burn cash
It sucks. Not pleasant to drink. Will get you drunk fast but so will anything else with 40% alcohol. Anyone who says they enjoy whisky is a liar. If I want to enjoy a drink I'll drink beer.
>>21689175>Anyone who says they enjoy whisky is a liar. the rest of the drinks are somehow worse, that's what's enjoyable about whisky>If I want to enjoy a drink I'll drink beer.correct, but fuck it if whisky drunkness is un-toppable
>>21689175>so will anything else with 40% alcoholDepends on what you're used to. I primarily drink barrel strength stuff and try not to go below 100 proof. Last night I had three drams of Very Old Barton veggie bed and barely felt it.
>>21689054They're both bad.
>>21689054Get Famous Grouse instead of Red. Get Teacher's instead of Black.
>>21689266Your liver probably felt it
>>21689054No. JW Red is pretty much paint-thinner. That shit's nasty. Get a nice single malt instead. My brew of choice is Laphroaig 10, but other single malts like Ardbeg, Glenfiddich and Highland Park are also nice.
>>21689054no johnny walkers are goodthe green is especially gross
>>21689671What about blue?
>>21689054I prefer bourbon over scotch. Ive tried blue and black and prefer neither.
>>21689681Probably the most overpriced whisky you could possibly buy.I wouldn't say it's gross. Just incredibly boring. Severely lacking in flavor for its price.
>>21689175retard. whiskey and soda is great.
>>21689671>the green is especially grossYou've clearly never had it, or are just retarded.Green is the only one worth discussing and can actually do solidly in blind tasting against much more respected scotches. And almost always will win in a blind tasting amongst the JW lineup.
>>21689054just drink gin. it taste better.
>>21689805You think green is better than black?
>>21689826Easily. Black is acceptable for a cheaper shot available at 90% of bars in the first world. Nice bit of smoke but nothing too complex beyond that. Green is actually a pretty nice dram with some layered complexity and tastes its age, and while not as easily found at a bar, it is still going to be available in many places.
>>21689805i have had itit isn't good
>>21689905Yeah it is pretty awful.
Monkey Shoulder, anon. Monkey Shoulder.
>>21689054I keep this shit on hand for when I want to drink with friends. I'll pour myself something real nice like a stagg, and then use an old stagg bottle filled with this shit for them. Actually got one of them to stop drinking altogether when it made him puke.
>>21689054Drink eagle rare and thank me later, anyone who’s tried it will agree. I come from a middle eastern family and Johnny Walker used to have a stranglehold on me until I discovered the truth.
>>21689054Take the black pill
>>21690046That’s not very nice
>>21689058I don't like when bourbon is distinguished from whiskey. Bourbon only is a type of whiskey and it's not an especially good one.
>>21689054I actually like red better than black. Black feels like a shit compromise, whereas red is exactly the garbage blended scotch it was meant to be.If you want good scotch, get good scotch. If you have a hankering for smoky garbage, as I sometimes do, Walker Red might be the swill for you.
>>21689054skip both and get bushmills 10 year
