BIG FLAVOURS

Experience the depth of soft apple and sweet fruit from distilleries like Cardhu on Speyside and Clynelish in the Highlands. Embrace creamy toffee and sweet vanilla from Lowland distilleries such as Glenkinchie and wrap yourself in a cloak of smoke with Caol Ila from the remote Islands.

First created over 100 years ago by the Walker family, who weren’t content with the one-note flavours and the inconsistent whiskies of their day, they took bold steps to make a significantly better Scotch - creating the iconic flavour people love today. A whisky that’s been winning international taste awards since then.

Johnnie Walker Master Blender, Emma Walker, says: “Johnnie Walker Black Label is a timeless classic. It’s incredible to think that it was created more than a century ago and continues to be enjoyed by so many, in so many ways today.”

Johnnie Walker Black Label is an unmistakably big-tasting and vibrant blended Scotch Whisky, full of flavour with the volume turned right up - no matter how loud one note is, it never drowns another one out.

“At Johnnie Walker we feel a tremendous sense of responsibility to ensure that those big flavours are still loved today and into the next 200 years and we’re prepared to take bold steps to make that happen.”
