So, naturally the best place to start would be the world’s most widely distributed brand of Scotch – Johnnie Walker Red Label – a blended Scotch Whisky, meaning they mix malt (made only from malted barley) and grain (unmalted barley and other grains like corn or wheat) whiskies in order to get the flavors they want.

So, what’s the verdict? Honestly, if you’re a seasoned Scotch drinker, Red Label may do little for you. The generous blending gives way to a milder set of flavors and a fairly faint finish. But, if you’re new to the game, this could be a good way of getting used to the different feel of the Scotch.
