Wlw blows GTS away on the nose.. But on taste, it only beats out GTS by a hair IMO. Both are incredible but my all time favorite is still the William Larue.

There were no more pours had after that happy hour session lol Bedtime came early

You'll have a hard time finding anyone in this thread who's a favor of JWB.

SMS can recommend wayyyy better scotch in the $150+ price range. I don't spend that much on scotch since its second in line behind bourbon to me.

JW Blue is a beginner scotch for rich teenagers

I drinks nice enough but has no character

JWB is what kept me from exploring scotches further.

Damn he wants that bottle bad. What's SM been selling for? $1000ish?

I, personally, would be going for WLWx2.
