Johnnie Walker Blue Label King George V.

Super special, right?

Spoiler Alert 🚨🚨 No (I have tried this several times, no change of opinion)

I have a love for many of the Blue Label editions (see: Elusive Umami), this one escapes me.

There is a fine line between a subtle play of flavors and utter blandness. This comes nowhere near that line. It is closer to basic Jameson than fine Scotch.

There are some attempts at flavor, but it would be an insult to those flavors to invoke them.

The three coffee beans on an espresso martini symbolize health, wealth, and happiness—a tradition rooted in Italian culture. This custom originated with the serving of Sambuca, an Italian liqueur, where three coffee beans (called con la mosca, or "with the fly") were added to represent good fortune and a toast to life’s blessings. When bartender Dick Bradsell created the espresso martini in the 1980s, he adopted this practice, turning the beans into a signature garnish.
