About JW Black Mini
Johnnie Walker Black Label opens with a rich, complex nose of dark fruits, vanilla, and a whisper of smoke from its Islay malt component. On the palate, waves of dried fruit, creamy toffee, and gentle peat smoke interweave with warming spice and a hint of dark chocolate. The finish is long, satisfying, and gently smoky with lingering sweetness.
