since i didnt manage to get japanese whisky like yamazaki or hibiki...i end up getting this instead.

For those who have tested, what are the difference comparing this blue label johnie walker with hibiki/yamazaki?

both also good

u mean both hibiki and yamazaki?

what about blue label?

i bought for my dad..so dont want to disappoint him...if it's bad..then i give my fren better.. hahaa...

ka chat mei is less in this one.

wat's kachatmei?

ayam no speaking thai yo!

Blue Label - Islay Whiskey (got smokey taste but to some people it reminds them of cockroach smell)
Hibiki - Highland Whisky

see #4... blue label gooding
katzaimei = one very unpleasant odour found in whiskey... smell like cockroach

I will go for Yamazaki which is a single malt whisky. The rest are blended whisky...

wtf..cockroach taste..ok..that's sading riao....

now going google find out diff between islay/highland whisky..

blue label has a floral, oaky, , highland style smoke finish which ppl here refer to as cockroach smell

tanks....now i get it riao...damn hate cockroach yo!





ayam nub in whisky..only know how to buy blindly.. lol....

The best source of information is you taste both and you'll immediately taste the difference, unless you have a dead palate.
I'd rather buy a bottle of Famous Grouse than an overrated blue label.

it is the thought that counts.

ppl have personal preferences on malts like cars. some ppl like different flavours not neccesarily exp.

i think i have that..dead palate....never could differentiate their taste....remember vividly last time when we have 3 types of chivas; 12, 18 and royal salute...take a sip on each..all taste the same to me, lol...

hmm..not sure about overrated, but i readed someone once said famous grouse are cheap whisky or something... but i guess each their own then.. aint gonna judge on something i dunno or dont take...






thanks for the comforting words..then will jst proceed to give then..

i guess it's kinda like wine then...there's no best wine..jst one that suits u..

JW Blue Label 18yo whisky

Hibiki/Yamazaki is Jap whisky but their 12YO is comparable or better in terms of taste. But then hard to find now.

Still its a good whisky in itself. Like other /k says, seldom you will find cockroach smell in an 18YO

TUMPANG

how about cordon bleu? havent tested it before and the last chance to taste flew due to need drive

yup..i asked few local liquor store and 2 shops in airport also couldnt find hibiki/yamazaki..that's when i decided to try something else....

thanks mang..

if it's jiken cordon bleu..then yes..my fav.. sekian

Very smooth on the throat. I'll choose it over most 18 years whiskies although generally, I'm more of a whisky lover!
