Johnnie Walker Blue Label 'Year of the Rooster' is a highly collectible, limited-edition release of the iconic blended Scotch whisky, designed to celebrate the Lunar New Year. The history of Johnnie Walker dates back to 1820 in Kilmarnock, Scotland, where grocer John Walker began blending single malts to achieve a more consistent and high-quality product. The Blue Label expression represents the pinnacle of this blending heritage, crafted from some of the rarest and most exceptional whiskies from the four corners of Scotland, including irreplaceable casks from long-silent 'ghost' distilleries. The liquid is celebrated for its velvety smooth texture, delivering complex layers of honey, dried fruits, sweet spice, and a signature whisper of gentle peat smoke.
