JOHNNIE WALKER 2014
- Limited editions showcases the craftsmanship and innovation of Johnnie Walker whisky
The first in the series of annual, limited releases, the Johnnie Walker Private Collection 2014 Edition showcases the craftsmanship and innovation of John Walker & Sons blended Scotch Whisky. Master Blender Jim Beveridge handpicked just 29 casks from irreplaceable bespoke and experimental stocks to create this unique blend.
Only 8,888 decanters of the John Walker & Sons Private Collection 2014 Edition were made. Each of these beautiful dark blue glass decanters is individually numbered, bottled at concentration 46.8% ABV barrel, volume 700ml; with a striking design that echoes the famous Johnnie Walker slanted label. The unique bottle design honors Johnnie Walker’s famous 24 degree tilting label image. The collection was built on a new year series of small batches, each produced only once to highlight Johnnie Walker’s craftsmanship and creative wines.
- Outstanding smoky flavor
A study in flavor, it is a supremely sophisticated expression of the smokiness of three of Scotland’s most celebrated whisky regions: bold and peaty Islay smoke, fresh maritime Island smoke and sweet, subtle Highland smoke.
Diageo GTME Global Marketing Director, Steve White said: “We see a high level of appreciation for super premium blended whiskeys in travel retail Asia, and this start-up emphasizes our commitment to constantly innovating & premiumizing our products. The 2014 edition, a unique smoky whiskey blend, is a great opportunity for connoisseurs & collectors to own the first rare decanter to start the John Walker & Sons Private Collection private collection. “

We are delighted & honored to be partnering with both Diageo and Changi Airport to deliver this limited edition from Johnnie Walker during the first launch in Asia ”.
