Johnnie
Walker Blenders' Batch Bourbon Cask &
Rye Finish will be available in select
markets, including travel retail.
Johnnie
Walker master blender Dr Jim Beveridge
has been busy once again, this time
crafting Johnnie Walker Blenders' Batch
Bourbon Cask & Rye Finish.
This is the second limited edition in
the Johnnie Walker Blenders' Batch
portfolio, a series of innovative and
experimental whiskies from the worlds
best selling blended Scotch whisky. The
experimental series aims to challenge
convention and showcase the skill of the
small team of expert blenders at Johnnie
Walker.
Available only in a small number of
selected markets, including Travel
Retail, Johnnie Walker Blenders' Batch
Bourbon Cask & Rye Finish contains over
200 whisky samples, aged in first-fill
bourbon casks and finished for up to six
months in former rye casks.
Its component whiskies originate from
just five distilleries including
Dufftown and the now closed Port Dundas
grain distillery, Jonnie Walker say the
new blend is rich and warming with an
intense honeyed sweetness.
The magic, creativity and
experimentation brought to life in the
whisky making process, is what drives
the blending team at Johnnie Walker to
experiment with new and surprising taste
experiences, resulting in this latest
addition to the Johnnie Walker Blenders'
Batch series. The on-going flavour
experiments that Beveridge and his team
study at the brand's home in Scotland
are a crucial part of their work,
focussing on developing and
understanding alternative flavours
including wine, coffee and chocolate.
"Experimentation is the key to
innovation," says Dr Beveridge. "It's
something that has been at the heart of
Johnnie Walker from the very beginning
and which has enabled us to consistently
create perfect whiskies like Johnnie
Walker Red Label and Johnnie Walker
Black Label for generations.
The new Johnnie Walker Blenders' Batch
Bourbon Cask & Rye Finish limited
edition blended Scotch was bottled at
40% ABV and will be available in a
select number of markets including
travel retail and has a RRP US$52.50/£32
per 1 litre bottle.
