I still have an unopened bottle of the 18yr Gold Centenary Blend that I found in a shop a few years ago. It's waiting for my 50th birthday. It's a very nice expression of Johnnie Walker.

It's a wonderful blended scotch, and I highly recommend it. In addition to the flavors you mentioned, I also tasted almonds with a hint of vanilla. It's incredibly smooth, and I enjoy the delightful smokey note.

Good review, however, the I much prefer the JW Green Label to this. It's close in minimum age (15 vs 18 years), contains no grain whiskey, higher ABV (43% vs 40%) and obviously has a higher percentage of their signature malts. Plus, the Green is $20.00 less expensive for an objectively better whisky. Subjectively, I find the Green to be a meatier whisky with more character and better mouth feel. Green remains the pick of the JW litter and their best value. As always, I appreciate your reviews.
@cubancigarman26874 жыл бұрын
Jim Vouvakis I agree 100% that jw green not only cheaper, but a better whisky period. Not price or packaging and bottle design makes the 18 ultimate a better drink than jw green. When I finish jw 18 ultimate with help from friends, I’ll refill it with jw green!
@MrMoTheMan4 жыл бұрын
I agree with what you say . . . But I find this 18 Year Ultimate can hold the class by its own, different enough from the green. Both really good IMO.
@Minigunboy4 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the honest recommendation. I'm very new into the world of whiskys so, i thought to be sure that the price is directly linked with the quality of a blended whiskey. When i saw your comment i couldn't resist to buy both Green Label and 18 Ultimate to compare them against each other. As a beginner with hardly any experience I think I can see why you would always pick the Green Label, but I have to admit, that for now I would rather "spend the evening" with the 18 years old Ultimate Edition only because of its smooth and silky feel and therefore more accessible taste.

When i had this blend, after opening the botlle i tasted in the aftertaste damp earth, not my favorite taste in whisky. But after a few hours tasting it again that flavor was gone. And i loved it, very balanced whisky not to sweet, creamy, fruity some caramel, a little cinamon, the oak was coming thru very well and pleasant not to much but definitly there. Very nice soft matured tastefull whisky.
