Johnnie Walker Blue Label Bottling Note
The Johnnie Walker Blue Label story begins in 1987 when the Distillers Company launched Johnnie Walker Oldest. It quickly became generally known as Blue Label, for obvious reasons, and it was a blend of rare malt and grain whiskies bottled without an age statement with stylishly retro packaging that echoed the Nineteenth century Johnnie Walker bottle.
Though expensive, or perhaps given it was expensive, it proved an immediate hit. By 1997, it was selling 50,000 cases globally. As being a known currency around the world, it’s maybe the ultimate gift whisky. You already know you’ve done a fantastic job or maybe your in-laws approve if you obtain a bottle.
Blue Label is sucked from unparalleled Diageo reserves of maturing malt and grain whiskies from across four regions (Highland, Lowland, Speyside, and Islay), including ghost distilleries, that Johnnie Walker has privileged access to. Regardless of the exact blend, an even flavour profile that’s a lovely balance of rich, slightly smoky, and fruity elements.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose Fragrant with higher body. Notes of oak, crisp spice, dried fruit, pastries. Berry fruits, aniseed, hints of cedar, some spice and citrus.
Palate Supple and balanced. Good toffee and hints of very wistful smoke. Chocolate, hints of grass along with a good hit of malt.
Finish Floral, oaky, good length, urged on by the plume of very well-kept, highland style smoke. Dried fruit, spice, honey.
Overall Among the ultimate premium blends, Blue Label is a legend on its own and can continue to be.
