Johnnie Walker Blue Label Chinese New Year Limited Edition Year Of The Snake Blended Scotch Whisky

Product Information: Celebrate the Year of the Snake with this striking, limited-edition Johnnie Walker Blue Label. Perfect for gifting, it is a stunning tribute to one of the most enigmatic Zodiac animals, symbolising wisdom, intelligence, and intuition. Asian-American artist and cultural visionary James Jean reimagined the Snake through vibrant illustrations, showcasing three snakes surrounded by blooming flowers, each shedding its skin to signify renewal and the beginning of a new chapter. Expect rolling waves of rich spice leading to a deep surge of vanilla sweetness and honey. Flavours of toffee and toasted nuts ripple through dark chocolate, culminating in a luxuriously long, smoky finish. Maker: The story of Johnnie Walker began in 1820 when a determined young man named John opened a grocery shop in Kilmarnock, Scotland, after his father’s passing. With a keen sense for business and whisky, John started blending whiskies to achieve a consistent flavour, quickly gaining popularity. When John passed away in 1857, his son Alexander took the reins, seizing the opportunity to expand during Britain’s Industrial Revolution. In 1867, Alexander introduced the iconic slanted label and square bottle, ensuring the brand stood out on shelves. By the early 1900s, the Striding Man logo, created by illustrator Tom Browne, became the symbol of Johnnie Walker’s progress and optimism. Today, Johnnie Walker is the world’s largest Scotch whisky brand, recognized for its pioneering spirit, with a Royal Warrant granted in 1934 by King George V. Philosophy: Johnnie Walker Blue Label embodies the rare craft, rare casks, and rare characters that come together to create a vibrant and deep Scotch Whisky. Sourced from the four corners of Scotland, including Lowland (Glenkinchie), Speyside (Cardhu), Islay (Caol Ila), and Highland (Clynelish), only one in 10,000 casks is hand-selected for this exceptional blend. This includes whiskies from long-closed 'ghost' distilleries. Johnnie Walker’s expert blenders carefully craft each whisky, respecting the unique elements—such as grains, yeast, still shape, and maturation—that shape the final character of this iconic Scotch. Nose - Rich Spice, Vanilla, Honey Rolling waves of rich spice give way to a deep surge of vanilla sweetness and honey Palate - Caramel, Hazelnuts, Smoky A first sip reveals a velvety mouth feel, as rolling waves of rich spice give way to a deep surge of vanilla sweetness and honey. Finish - Pepper, Smoke, Subtle Cedar Spice Caramel and hazelnuts course through dark chocolate. A uniquely long, luxurious finish of smoke, pepper and a hint of spice.

Midleton Very Rare Irish Whiskey ( Vintage Release)

Since 1984, each Master Distiller of Midleton Very Rare uses their eye for detail, their passion for quality whiskey and their exemplary skill to create the pinnacle of Irish whiskey - Midletons special vintage release. The latest chapter of this renowned collection is adorned with the signature of their Master Distiller, Kevin O’Gorman. After months of exploration, O’Gorman crafted a balanced blend of rare and hand-selected single pot still and single grain Irish whiskeys from Midleton’s exclusive inventory to create this truly special release. Matured in lightly charred ex-bourbon American oak barrels, the Midleton Very Rare 2023 Vintage Release delights with decadent flavours and a tantalising aroma. The aroma, taste and finish of this whiskey will enliven the palates of those new to this collection while taking the seasoned whiskey collector on a journey through an exciting exploration of taste. If history has taught us anything, it’s that no idea is new—but this idea, grown from an appreciation of what has come before, is a new take on an old legacy inspired by Midletons commitment for a greener future. The new secondary Midleton pack takes inspiration from the original cardboard box created for their first vintage in 1984. This original box ran from the inaugural year in 1984 until 1990. They were hard cardboard boxes lined with a beautiful golden fabric, while each bottle was 750ml topped by an old-style screw cap. In 1990 the bottle was changed to the new European regulation size of 700ml, while the oak boxes replaced the original cardboard cases. A metallic plate decorating the front of the box replaced the old, printed title on the cardboard boxes from the 1980’s. 2017 saw a new double-doored wooden box introduced, and a new bespoke bottle with the inclusion of the Midleton pen nib. Added to this, a new label adorned the bottle inspired by the original from 1984. 2023 completes the circle with the return of a more sustainable offering. The nose opens with an intricate medley of fruits including nectarines, ripe melon, green apple, and apricot. A solid foundation of pot still spices, showcasing notes of freshly peeled ginger and crushed peppercorns, work in tandem with the aged grain’s perfumed notes of dried flowers and delectable golden syrup. The oak continues to reveal itself, adding notes of vanilla, combined with a honeycomb sweetness and freshly roasted coffee beans. The palate is luscious at first with succulent fruits and a distinctive creaminess along with a herbal quality akin to camomile tea. The pot still spices add depth and intrigue as they weave amongst the floral grain qualities found lingering throughout. The charred oak’s influence continues to build over time creating additional complexity as the wood-derived spices complement the ever-present fruits of candied orange and dried apricot. On the finish the fruits and pot still spices build to a crescendo before giving way, leaving the final say to the oak tannins and antique grain whiskey.
