Just try it and you will see. The quality, richness, and smoothness are incomparable. Now don't get me wrong you can never go wrong with a bottle of Johnnie Walkers Black Label either. Always remember Blue can get you in trouble, it goes down like water, like no other.
Yes. Each bottle is numbered and you should be proud to display it!
Royal Lochnagar is part of the blend. Also: Cardhu Benrinnes Caol Ila
Johnnie Walker Blue Label Blended Whisky is the top of the Johnnie Walker line: Blue, Gold, Green, Black, and Red. At about $150 USD per bottle (duty free) this is an investment in some good whiskey and many wonder if it is worth that price for a blend. Many whiskey/whiskey consumers will dish out more for single malt, but why is this blended whiskey so popular and so expensive? In the end, I argue it is worth having around for special occasions
no Premium whiskey from JW starts at black label, then green label, then gold label, and FINALLY, the holiest of holy: blue label. I personally like the green label the best, for its intensity. If you want the smoothest Johnny Walker, then get the black. You won't be disappointed!
Essentially it's the level of quality (based on ingredients, amount of time aged, ABV, etc.). From bottom to top it goes: Red Label (~$17 for a 750ml bottle in my area) Black Label (~$25) Green Label (~40) Blue Label (I saw this on sale at my local liquor store for $125)
Johnnie Walker Red Label is an 80 proof (40% ABV) blend of grain and malt whiskies.
He no longer drinks Scotch. He drinks Number Juan Anejo Tequilla on stage. However, it is unlikely that it is actually tequilla and most likely apple juice.
I just bought a bottle. I have drank Johnnie Walker Green and Gold with ice, and have had no qualms about that, but I don't want to detract anything from the higher-priced Blue. With Single Malts, there's no question; I always drink them straight, or with just a little water.

Rare means nothing at all. If Johnnie Walker Blue Label is rare then how come it's in every travel retail shop in the world? Or millions of bottles of J&B? (I am a spirits wholesaler in Scotland).
69 calories per ounce for Red, Black, or Blue.
If that's your thing and if you got the money to do so, don't let anyone else tell you otherwise.
Take a shot of it - Don't ever drink Blue Label that way; taking shots of it is such a waste. Sip it neat, savour it. Check the box - they come with serial number and a certificate of authenticity.
