Why is johnnie walker black label disgusting the first time i try it?

it takes time to appreciate scotch. at 21-25, i hated it. it grew on me. there are lots of types. try chiviss, it is smoother than most lower level johnny's. johnny is among the highest quality scotches there is when u get into the gold and blue labels. try it with water and ice(sounds crazy.but true)|||Smartie Pants is right. Scotch is something you have to learn to like. I don't think anyone likes it the first time. If you learn to like it, it is most likely to be because you like what it does for you. Later on you'll learn to notice the complexity of flavors and admire the artwork that was put into making a really beautiful whiskey.|||yeah you either drink it till you like it, or not at all, i personally only drink it when i have to, and prefer a higher quality scoth/whiskey|||Scotch is an acquired taste. Its different.
