Bringing together four of the most recognisable blends from Johnnie Walker, this impressive Whisky Collection Gift Pack offers a journey through the different styles, flavours and levels of maturity that have helped make the name famous around the world. Inside are four generous 20cl bottles: Johnnie Walker Black Label, Gold Label Reserve, Aged 18 Years and the prestigious Blue Label, giving the recipient 80cl of premium Blended Scotch Whisky to discover.
Rather than simply being a selection of smaller bottles, the collection works particularly well as a tasting experience. Each whisky has a noticeably different personality, moving from the fruit, spice and signature smoke of Black Label through the sweeter, creamier Gold Label Reserve and mature complexity of the 18 Year Old, before finishing with the remarkable depth and smoothness of Blue Label. Presented together as a premium Johnnie Walker whisky gift set, it makes an excellent choice for birthdays, Christmas, Father's Day, anniversaries or anyone wanting to explore some of the best-known expressions in the Johnnie Walker range.
Johnnie Walker Black Label 12 Year Old
A rich and characterful Blended Scotch Whisky, created using whiskies matured for at least 12 years. It balances sweet fruit, creamy vanilla and caramel with warming spice, oak and the distinctive touch of smoke that has become a hallmark of the blend. Smooth enough to enjoy neat yet bold enough to stand up to ice or a classic whisky highball, it provides an excellent introduction to the Johnnie Walker range.
Johnnie Walker Gold Label Reserve
Gold Label Reserve takes the collection in a softer, more luxurious direction. Created around whiskies chosen for their naturally sweet and honeyed character, it has a beautifully rounded texture with layers of orchard and tropical fruit, creamy vanilla, caramel and honey. Gentle spice and a restrained smoky edge stop the sweetness becoming heavy, leaving a whisky that feels rich without losing its freshness.
Johnnie Walker Aged 18 Years
With greater maturity comes a noticeable step up in depth. Johnnie Walker Aged 18 Years brings together carefully selected mature whiskies, including character from celebrated distilleries such as Blair Athol, Glen Elgin and Cardhu. The result balances sweet fruit and creamy malt with warming spice, polished oak, caramel and subtle nuttiness. There is plenty to discover as it sits in the glass, making this a particularly rewarding whisky to sip slowly and a fascinating bridge between the more immediately approachable Gold Label Reserve and the complexity of Blue Label.
Johnnie Walker Blue Label
The collection finishes with its most prestigious expression, Johnnie Walker Blue Label. Produced using exceptionally rare whiskies selected for their character and quality, Blue Label is designed around depth, balance and an exceptionally smooth delivery. Rich honeyed sweetness and dried fruit meet hazelnut, dark chocolate, warming spice and layers of carefully controlled smoke, with different flavours continuing to emerge as the whisky opens in the glass. It is the bottle that gives this collection an especially premium feel and offers an opportunity to experience one of the world's best-known luxury Blended Scotch Whiskies without purchasing a full-sized bottle.
