Because Blue isn't single-malt, it presents itself as being of "the common man." But like a Blue politician, it lies about being better than every other JW, costs more than you can afford, and in the end tastes no better than anything else.
JW Red is honest...he doesn't cost a lot, doesn't act pretentious, basically says 'if you drink me, you won't get invited to better parties or go to Ivy League schools, but you'll have a good time and money left over."
JW Gold is the libertarian...he has the best of red and blue but will never be as popular.
What about JW Green?
Thanks,
Now let’s get the JW Red vs Blue sales reports from all the liquor stores.
And factor them into the maps.
No one has done that yet, I think.
The handle of Black that swings from the tilt stand on my bar smacks me of the best value. I grew up on the Red, but now I’m a snob.
