This explains it all....

From ScotchWhisky.net

Johnnie Walker to get radical shake up Johnnie Walker Green Label, a 15-year-old blended malt, is to be phased out in the coming months, but will be given a 12-month stay of execution in the US. It will also remain on sale in Taiwan, where the blended malt category is thriving. Johnnie Walker Gold Label, an 18-year-old blend, will also be phased out by the end of the year... In their place Diageo has announced the global launch in May and June... of Johnnie Walker Gold Label Reserve, with no age statement, which has been sold for the last five years in south-east Asia; and Johnnie Walker Platinum Label, an 18-year-old blend...

I wanted to say somethin' about Johnny Walker (it could be 50 stinkin' years old) as it is the most rotten swill I've ever tasted but I won't...

just to say that for blended whiskey Famous Grouse or Bell's should be investigated...

Johnny Walker for scotch and Jameson's for irish are both fer shit...for a nice smooth tipple try Famous Grouse or Tullamore Dew instead...and you will be pleasantly surprised...

I don't drink blends anymore, only malt whiskey as it twists me heid and gives a bad hangover...but in Scotland and if yer down the Shettlestone Road in east Glasgow ye got to make do with whats availalble, Bell's or Famous Grouse and then yer ain't doin' too bad...

and then I was with Eddie from Glasgow in Abu Dhabi who observed that a fellow scotsman was wearing a blue shirt and then he threw an empty plastic water bottle at him and smirked: 'I like throwin' boddles at guys with blue shirts on...' he was Celtic and the other guy was Rangers and was severely fatigued and I said: 'hold off Eddie...the man is beat and we ain't nothin' to gain from this one...'

in the desert on a utility boiler construction site in Abu Dhabi in 1999...and the traditional hostilities endure...

Vat 69 is a better blended whiskey than JW.

Didn't sell well as in a dark nightclub the green label looks black and thus gets you no more face than black would but at a much greater cost.
