The Original Label 5 Classic Black Matured in Oak Cask

Label 5 Classic Black is a well-known blended Scotch whisky, matured in oak casks and bottled at 40% ABV. It’s crafted with a mix of malt and grain whiskies—Speyside malts forming the backbone—and is designed to be smooth, approachable, and versatile.

Here’s a detailed look at its tasting profile:

Palate: Smooth and mellow, offering vanilla, butter, and caramel, with subtle grassy notes and a whisper of smoke. Some tasters also note citrus zest and dried grass.

Finish: Clean and short, leaving behind a sweet, fruity impression with a trace of oak
