Made using only whiskies from distilleries that were operating at that time, and bottled at 51% ABV, the blend reflects the style of many Scotch whiskies before the early 1900s. It earned a gold medal at the 2021 San Francisco World Spirits Competition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt offers a flavour journey of sweet dried fruits, gentle spice and roasted nuts, with a soft pepper finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePresented in its commemorative box, it makes a fine gift for Scotch lovers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eServe it neat with chilled water on the side.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eScotch whisky must be distilled and matured in Scotland for at least three years in oak casks, and any age statement on the label refers to the youngest whisky in the bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA blended Scotch combines malt and grain whiskies from different distilleries; using only distilleries operating in the 1860s gives a window into the flavours of the time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBottled at 51% ABV, the blend carries more weight than a standard 40% Scotch, as many whiskies did in the nineteenth century.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJohn Walker \u0026amp; Sons is the top tier of the Johnnie Walker family, reserved for rare and limited blends.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdding a little chilled water opens the dried fruit and spice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFruit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sweet dried fruits.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpice:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gentle spice and roasted nuts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Soft pepper.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e John Walker \u0026amp; Sons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blended Scotch Whisky, limited edition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 102 proof (51% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Scotland\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Enjoy It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eServe it neat with chilled water on the side.
