I've got a JW double black opened. It's OK but the finish is a bit too short for me.

But tonight I am going to a Douglas Laing tasting in Glasgow and will probably pick one of their's up and another opened up tomorrow night!

Having drunk single malts for some time I am now venturing into the world of blends. Started at an entry level and got a Johnnie Walker Red label! It makes quite a nice change Smile
