About this deal

Rượu Gold Label có thể được kết hợp với nhiều món ăn khác nhau, từ các món ăn nhẹ, khai vị đến các món ăn chính. I’ll admit, the journey to this juncture was one of contemplation and, yes, a bit of delightful indecision. Each label had my fullest attention (especially the slim price difference), and for a good while, I was having a hard time giving which whisky my vote in this show-off. I find Gold Label Reserve to be the most frustrating of all the standard Label releases from Johnnie Walker. The discontinuation of the previous 18-year-old Gold Label and subsequent introduction of Platinum have rendered this release somewhat redundant. Taking a relatively short step up the ladder to Platinum, or – as I would highly recommend – down to Green Label would provide a much more enjoyable and intriguing experience.

Johnnie Walker Green Label, meanwhile, offers a delightful contrast to desserts, cutting through the sweetness with its spicy, smoky profile, making it an adventurous choice for those who prefer a less conventional pairing. Neat or with Ice Then there’s Green Label, the rugged adventurer of the bunch. My encounters with it have been nothing short of revelatory. It’s a mosaic of the wild, embodying the untamed beauty of the Scottish highlands. When it dances on my palate, it’s with the grace of a warrior—strong, bold, yet with an elegance that’s hard to articulate. It’s the whisky that asks you to listen, not just taste. At the finish, the tables turned dramatically. Green Label soared ahead with a finish that was both long and satisfyingly complex. It left a tale that lingered, full of character and a lasting warmth. Gold, while smooth, had a finish that felt, to me, a bit abrupt, almost like a story that ended before its climax. The result is a sweet and fruity Scotch that evolves into deep honeyed tones and long, lingering waves of light smoke. Best served over crushed ice with a slice of orange, this is a whisky that is every bit as luxurious and indulgent as its name suggests.Johnnie Walker Green Label makes its mark in the whisky world by straying from the beaten path. This unique blend is crafted exclusively from single malts, each aged for at least 15 years, setting it apart from its blended whisky brethren. Here’s a bit of trivia for you: the square bottle was introduced in 1870, not only to differentiate it from competitors but also to reduce breakage during transport. When you first inhale, the nose is a tapestry of aromatics. Imagine a stroll through a verdant forest; there’s the earthiness of fresh foliage, a whisper of smoke, and a zest of citrus fruits—it’s nature in a glass, complex yet inviting. The expertise and carefully honed skills of these craftsmen have been passed down from generation to generation, each crafting innovative whisky flavours with deep character to be savoured and enjoyed all around the world. Inspired by this rich tradition, we have today created Johnnie Walker Gold Label Reserve, a vibrant ad contemporary celebration of the art of blending Scotch Whisky. Flavor-wise, Green Label is a saga of sweet and smoky. You’ve got your vanilla creaminess, your vibrant fruits, and that smoky undercurrent that’s persistent but never overbearing. It’s harmony in a dram, the kind of balance that speaks of careful craft and curation.

Gold Label, at 40%, wears its alcohol content like a well-tailored suit: present, polished, but never ostentatious. It’s there to enhance, not overpower. With an ABV of 43%, the alcohol is not just a bystander. It’s a catalyst that nudges the flavors forward, giving them a stage to unfold without stealing the show. It’s assertive enough to be noticed, yet tactful enough to let the whisky’s character shine. With this, you might find kinship with the likes of Talisker 10 or Cragganmore 12. Johnnie Walker Gold Label Reserve is a perfect celebration of the art of blending, created for today's moments of celebration."The aroma, or the nose, was a different playing field altogether. Here, both whiskies leveled out for me. Gold Label offered a sweet, almost celebratory fragrance, but it didn’t quite reach the heights I anticipated.
