About this deal

This experience was a precursor to my venture into the liquor shop business, where I had the privilege of curating an extensive collection of liquors, granting me access to thousands of unique bottles from across the globe. The story of Johnnie Walker starts with the man himself. John Walker, a teetotaller or a person who’s never had alcohol, ran a grocery store which he then turned into a distillery in 1825. After he passed, his son Alexander and grandson Alexander II took over. The band released its first commercial blend called the Old Highland Whisky in 1865. Whisky, not Whiskey Johnnie Walker Gold, a blend of 15 whiskies, is the ideal smooth whisky to sip slowly in the evening, preferably in a tuxedo. It errs on the side of sweet with vanilla and caramel flavors as well as honey notes. The nose of the whisky has a rich, complex aroma with notes of oak, spice and sweet pastries. On the palate it is velvety smooth and mellow, with flavours of caramelised sugar, honeyed malt, smoky oak and grass. The finish is long and lingering, with subtle notes of sherry, dark chocolate and a hint of smokiness.

In July 2020, Johnnie Walker announced plans to release a new environmentally-friendly paper bottle set to debut in early 2021. [25] By the mid 20th century, Johnnie Walker was available in 120 countries around the world, and the company was even granted a Royal Warrant to supply whisky to the British royal family.

Dewar’s 16 whisky, also known as ‘Double Agent’ is one of the brand’s most recent, disruptive and unusual Scotch blends. Launched in 2022, the 16 has an intriguing two-stage maturation that intertwines sherry sweet with Islay peat. To begin, grain and malt whiskies are aged seperatley prior to blending. One married together, the whisky is aged again in oak casks before being divided (hence the name) into Jerez Sherry casks and smoky ex-Islay casks. Once more they’re aged for at least 16 years and re-blended to make a deliciously sweet but curiously smoky blend. Brown, Craig (21 March 2012). "Christopher Hitchens's Diary". Vanity Fair .

Exploring the Agave Fields of Oaxaca: While my career commenced with a focus on Scotch and Bourbon, life’s adventures have led me to the picturesque agave fields of Oaxaca, Mexico. This blend of Johnnie Walker whisky is known for its sweet taste. It has won multiple accolades, including The World’s Best Blended at the World Whiskies Award in 2018. The Gold Label Reserve has a smooth taste with tropical fruits flavours. It is sweet-smelling, reminiscent of honey and heather. 5. Green Label Amidst the fruity sort of orchard sweetness, I get subtle wisps of cut hay, adding an earthy undertone to the scent. On the nose, Dewar’s provides a pleasing balance between fruity and herbal notes that leads you in. As premium Scotch blends go, Johnnie Walker Blue Label offers a truly luxurious whisky experience that showcases the very best in Scotch whisky distilling techniques. Molavi, Afshin.

This blend features single malts from Cardhu and Clynelish – one of Scotland’s most Northern distilleries. Blender George Harper used the Frozen North as his starting point for creating White Walker by Johnnie Walker. He said: “Whiskies from Clynelish have endured long, Scottish Winters, not dissimilar to the long periods endured by the Night’s Watch who have ventured north of the wall - so it was the perfect place to start when creating this unique whisky.” Created to be a smooth and sweeter whisky than other Blended Scotch Whiskies, Dewar’s 15 Year Old is unique in that it is double aged using casks combined with Deward’s signature golden water source. This enhances its flavour notes even further, creating a rich blend of honey, toffee and delicate floral aromas. As such, Dewar’s 15 Year Old is full-bodied yet sophisticated; delivering superior quality for a very reasonable price. Resultantly, it has an inviting nose of honey, dried peels and toasted oak with a hint of strawberry jam and oak. On the palate, this whisky is rich with notes of Hobnob biscuits, red berry sweetness, sandalwood and treacle. The finish is a gentle build of Christmas spices with orchard fruit and mint leaf. At the peak of their permanent range, Dewar’s 25 Year Old is their pinnacle bottle. Micallef, Joseph (2015). Scotch Whisky, its History, Production and Appreciation.

Dewar’s and Johnnie Walker are both blended Scotch whisky brands. Neither produce single malts. Instead they source malt and grain whiskies from various distilleries around Scotland which they use to make their various ages of blended Scotch. This specific blend is considered the brand’s most premium and complex. The Johnnie Walker Blue Label is deemed a masterpiece as it combines Scotland’s rare and highest-quality whiskies. The blend of the Blue Label introduces notes of mellow smokiness paired with the sweetness of raisins. The sweet taste of fruits mellow out the harshness of the spirit and is gentle on the nose as well as the palate. It also contains the combinations of velvety vanilla, rose petals, and honey as well as notes of hazelnut, dark chocolate, and sherry. Which Johnnie Walker is the most expensive?
