✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Johnnie Walker Ultimate 18 Year Old is a masterfully crafted blended Scotch whisky that pays homage to the historic tradition of 'private blends' created by the Walker family directors for exclusive gatherings. Originating from the grocery shop founded by John Walker in Kilmarnock in 1820, the brand has become synonymous with Scotch blending excellence. This expression is composed of up to 18 different whiskies, each aged for a minimum of 18 years, sourced from the classic distilling regions of Scotland. It beautifully marries the sweet, elegant orchard fruit notes of Speyside and Highland malts with a rich, velvety texture, subtle vanilla, dark chocolate, and a very gentle, lingering whisper of Islay smoke.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Johnnie Walker blev grundlagt i 1820 af John Walker som en købmandsforretning i Kilmarnock, hvor han udblendede uensartede single malts til harmonisk whisky. I dag har huset under Diageos ejerskab udviklet sig til det absolutte pejlemærke for blended skotsk whisky. Master Blender Dr. Emma Walker råder i dag over enorme modningslagre med mere end ti millioner fade fra over tredive velansete destillerier i Highland, Speyside, Lowland og Islay – herunder uerstattelige 'ghost'-partier fra for længst lukkede ikoner som Port Ellen og Brora. Med udgangspunkt i Diageos bæredygtige 'Grain-to-Glass'-filosofi for korndyrkning og destillering forvandler blenderne Skotlands mangeartede terroir til komplekse, lagdelte kompositioner, der er kendetegnet ved husets distinkte røg, moden frugtplantage, maritim salt og blød vaniljesødme. Signatur-aftapninger som den klassiske Black Label, Green Label blended malt og den eksklusive Blue Label udgør højdepunktet inden for skotsk blendingkunst i stor skala, hvor historisk håndværk forenes med nutidig videnskabelig præcision.
