Mouthfeel: For me, White Label has a medium body with a light pleasant texture that rolls over the palate. It is not too thin nor too cloyingly sweet and it lingers for a few moments after sipping. There’s just enough warmth from the 40% ABV to make one feel satisfied, without being overpowering or harsh. The whisky has a creamy and very slightly oily mouthfeel that fills the mouth without dominating it. Overall, White Label is smooth and enjoyable to sip on its own or with a mixer.
