Previously, the famous black-label brand (the better-quality, higher-priced product) had been 86 proof, where legal, the lower-end green label 80 proof; these marked reductions from the previous practice until recent years of bottling the black-label product at 90 proof and the green-label product at 86. Both are made from the same ingredients; the difference is determined by professional tasters who determine which of the batches will be graded out as worthy of being labelled with the prestigious black label, the rest being sold under the green label.

Green Label used to be 86 proof in the 1980's and Black label was 90 Proof in the 1980's (the Good Ole Days)
Now I have Black Label at 80 Proof, so I can drink/enjoy more and I have not seen green label since the 1980's.

Green label is cheaper. It has a distinct taste because it ws aged less time and in a different type of barrel.
