Day Three of Cheap Week, where I have a strict budget of $50 or less for a 700mL Bottle in the Australian Market, I set out to prove whether it’s possible to find a good Scotch you can drink neat and enjoy…or whether you’re wasting your time. The Label 5 Classic Black Scotch is another own-brand of Woolworths/Dan Murphy’s…but is it better than the 1495?

With John Chidgey.

My exploration of the Johnnie Walker core range continues as I review the Black Label, a 12 Year Blended Scotch that has been around for over a hundred years. I also go a bit off the rails and look at how much Australia and the United States differ in terms of recommended alcohol intake guidelines, weighing your Whisky bottles to measure how much is left and whether or not more expensive bottles are intentionally made heavier to make them feel more classy.

So begins my deep dive into all of the Johnnie Walker Core Range of Scotch Whiskies starting with their entry-level Red Label. I look at the history of the ownership of Johnnie Walker since the beginning, as well as what goes into this Blend…so far as we know. I also answer the question of…can you, or should you, drink this neat?

The Nova is the entry-level Single Malt Ausskey from the Australian Whisky institution that is Starward. It’s a red berry explosion of sorts, and not only do I review this amazing Single Malt, I also review four of the most common cork types. If you like ASMR of opening Whisky bottles, this is your episode to watch!

Starward are a rapidly growing Australian Distillery based in Melbourne and their entry-level Blended Whiskey they call the Two-Fold. In addition to reviewing the Two-Fold, I look at some of Starwards history, how they age their Whisky in so-called Wet Barrels that are ex-Red Wine, predominantly, and I also coin a new expression to rival the slang word, Scotch. Australian Whisky = Ausskey. It’s gonna stick people!

Describing themselves as a true Urban Distillery, the Milk & Honey Distillery is located in the heart of Tel Aviv in Israel. With warehouses in extreme locations including adjacent to the Dead Sea, and their use of STR, Shaved-Toasted-Recharred Casks for maturation, leads to some very interesting Whiskies. Only ten years young this distillery has been punching well above its weight and I’m excited to review their Classic Single Malt to see just how good it really is.
