Johnnie Walker
Kilmarnock, Ayrshire, Scotland · since 1820
In 1820 John Walker opened a grocery shop in Kilmarnock, Ayrshire, and began blending Whiskey to offer a consistent product. His son Alexander and grandson Alexander Walker II turned the family business into a global blended Scotch brand; today Johnnie Walker belongs to Diageo.

Region
Kilmarnock
Where the distillery or house that makes this spirit is located. Origin matters: climate, water and local traditions shape the style. Scotland has five whisky regions recognised by law: Highlands, Lowlands, Speyside, Islay and Campbeltown.
Country
Scotland
Country of origin of this spirit. In Scotland a whiskey may only be called Scotch if it is distilled and matured there for at least three years in oak casks.
Age
years
The age on the label is that of the youngest whiskey in the blend: every component spent at least years in cask. Only time in wood counts — once bottled, whiskey does not age.
Cask
The cask the spirit matured in gives colour, aroma and texture. Many houses use casks that previously held another drink:
A finish is a final period of maturation in a second cask.
Style & still
Blended
Blended: malt whiskeys blended with grain whiskeys for a consistent house style.
Base
The raw material that is fermented and distilled.
Alcohol
40%
% ABV is alcohol by volume. In the European Union the legal minimum is 40% for whiskey and 37.5% for gin, rum and vodka. Cask strength means bottled at the cask's natural strength, without dilution. A few drops of water can open up the aromas.
Bottle
700 ml
A 700 ml bottle gives about 17 measures of 4 cl. Once opened, store it upright, tightly closed and away from light and heat: spirits keep well for months but slowly lose aroma once the bottle is half empty.

Tasting notes
Tasting notes describe what is in the glass: appearance (colour), nose (aromas) and palate (flavour, texture and finish). They are a guide, not a rule — everyone perceives aromas differently.
To taste, use a tulip-shaped tasting glass and a small measure; bring your nose in slowly and, if you like, add a few drops of water to open up the aromas.

Description
A blended Scotch whiskey showing great character. Smoke is the most prominent feature of the new JOHNNIE WALKER DOUBLE BLACK. This whiskey was first available as a limited edition in some of the world's major airports. It was so successful that the following year it was launched in several countries as a limited edition, and it's now a permanent part of the JOHNNIE WALKER range.

What age and cask tell you
NAS No age statement (NAS)
The blender picks casks for flavour rather than years. By law Scotch is at least 3 years old.
How to taste like a pro
At room temperature, to meet the whiskey as it left the cask.
2–3 drops of still water open up hidden aromas, especially above 43%.
One large cube chills with less dilution; it softens but closes some aromas.
- Glass
- Glencairn or a tulip nosing glass: it concentrates the aromas.
- Temperature
- 18–20 °C
- Measure
- 25–35 ml (one dram)
- Look at the colour and the “legs” in the glass.
- Nose with your mouth slightly open, without burying your nose in the glass.
- Take a small first sip and let it coat your whole tongue.
- Add a drop of water and nose again.
- Swallow and count the seconds of the finish.
