In 1819, John Walker, a farmer's son, opened a small general shop in Kilmarnock and began experimenting with blending techniques. He wanted to create a whisky of which every single bottle would be of the same unique quality. And so he laid the foundation for the Johnnie Walker family business, which became the largest whiskey company in the world.

Derived from blending whiskies matured in heavily charred oak casks and specially selected whiskies from the West Coast of Scotland with a naturally smoky flavour, Johnnie Walker Double Black embodies the characteristics of Johnnie Walker Black Label, whilst delivering a new, full-bodied intensity that makes it an unrivalled whiskey choice. Perfect for enjoying at home, it also makes a a great gift for someone who loves smoky whiskies or wants to try something new.

Tasting Notes:

Spices and a peat smoke note unite with cloves, vanilla, oranges and sultanas to create a bold new expression that is full-bodied, noble and intense on the tongue.

Suggested Recipe:

Johnnie Walker Double Black Label is ideal for pure enjoyment and develops its aroma particularly strongly in combination with ice cubes or water. The whisky can also be served on ice with fresh orange and ginger ale.
