Review- Johnnie Walker tasting at DAR

The Johnnie Walker tasting was boozy and had a whole lot of iPads. Can't complain about the full size drinks served at the bar before the tasting started. Choice of an Old Fashioned, a Johnnie Red and Ginger, or a Johnnie Black on the rocks. Gooood.

Since 4 of us had gone to The Macallan tasting last year with the funny Scottish guy leading it, the bar was set pretty high for the old frat boy leading this one. He wasn't bad, but the crowd sucked. COME ON DC! Crack a smile-- you're drinking for free. It's been more than 2 years and DC people still amaze me with the plethora of ways they can be boring between 5-8pm before driving back out to VA. (Sorry J, S, & L).

Anyway-- group consensus after tasting Red Label, Black Label, Gold Label and Blue Label?-- the GOLD!
