Johnnie Walker King George V 2021 Lunar New Year - Year Of The OX Blended Scotch Whisky
In stock
A limited-edition Blue Label King George V Malt from the John Walker & Sons Collection bottled to celebrate Lunar New Year 2021 year of the OX.
John Walker & Sons King George V is an exceptional Whisky, crafted to celebrate the granting of the first Royal Warrant to John Walker & Sons by King George V in 1934. A small team of expert blenders, led by Master Blender Jim Beveridge, hand-select precious casks of whiskies from distilleries that were in existence during King George V’s reign including whiskies from Benrinnes, Caol Ila, Cardhu and the now silent Port Ellen and Port Dundas.
The dedicated team of blenders skillfully bring them together to reveal indulgent depth of flavour – an abundance of spice and dried fruits greets you, balanced perfectly with notes of creamy vanilla sweetness, rich fruits, dark chocolate, toffee and a beautiful, intense Islay smoky finish.
