Johnnie Walker 約翰走路 Green 15

Blended Malt   Score: 85   ABV: 43%   Bottle: 10/10   Notes: Taiwan Exclusive
Johnnie Walker Green
Let me be clear about this; Johnnie Walker Green is still being made, regardless what you’z hearz on the interwebz. But more on that later. For now, I’m sitting with what is arguably my favorite Walker.  This has long been a darling of mine, and continues to be a staple on the shelf.

Nose: Heather, salt, honey, green apple, lemon, roasted nuts, and banana. A touch of minerals in here, no doubt from the Talisker.

Palate: Light bodied, with heather, brine, honey, and lemon tart. Not a rich mouthfeel, but still deeper than the majority of Walkers.

Finish: Medium length, with more heather, brine, honey, orange bitters, butter, pastry, and gentle smoke.

Thoughts: While JW Green has been pulled from the shelves everywhere else, Taiwan was spared this awful fate. It’s a shame that most people don’t have access to this anymore. Whisky enthusiasts absolutely loved it. Unfortunately whisky enthusiasts represent only a fraction of JW sales. The bottom line is that this didn’t sell well enough. Too expensive for college kids and boozers, too cheap to be a fancy holiday gift. Taiwan, fortunately, has a taste for this one. JW Green is a widely popular whisky here in the 4th biggest whisky market in the world, so I guess we got lucky.

Not that I’m rubbing it in or anything…

嗅覺:
* 帶有礦物味,應該是來自TALISKER.
*鹽,蜂蜜,青蘋果,檸檬,烤過的堅果,香蕉,淡淡的花香.
味覺:
*喝起來口感輕盈,但是跟其它約翰走路的系列比起來已經是算是重了.
*鹽,蜂蜜,檸檬塔,淡淡的煙薰,淡淡的花香.
後味:
* 後味再口中停留時間適中.
*花香,鹽,蜂蜜,橘子雞尾酒苦味,奶油,烘焙點心,淡淡煙薰.
 
評語:
*如果你在台灣你應該要感到幸運,因為這一款威士忌曾經是在全球都有賣,
但是現在只有台灣有在販受. 這是唯一一款約翰走路是純麥威士忌,完全大麥製作,與其它約翰系列相比,
這一款的酒體較重味道也較有深度. 與其它昂貴的約翰走路系列相比,這是我認為最好的WALKER.
因為我們台灣是唯一還有販受WALKER GREEN ,我們應該要珍惜.

I have a bottle in holding on my shelf. Should I bother buying another or two? Or just enjoy the bottle I have so I know what I am missing when it is gone?

I wouldn't buy extra. As I said in the review, JW Green isn't going anywhere for those of us in Taiwan.
