Johnnie Walker Red Label celebrates almost two years of blending tradition. Bold, characterful flavours with a soft, smoky finish create the perfect whiskey for mixed drinks.
Fun Fact: Johnnie Walker Red Label was originally called Special Old Highland Whisky, but drinkers started ordering it by its distinctive red label. The name stuck.[vc_video link=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kl0BmLQFnI4″]
Tasting Notes
Every sip of Johnnie Walker Red Label is engineered to be an intense, blooming explosion of flavour on the palate:
-
Appearance: Deep golden copper with dark, syrupy depths.
-
Aroma: An immediate, aromatic wave of fresh green apples, zesty citrus fruitiness, heather honey, and soft, underlying peat smoke spiced with cinnamon and pepper.
-
Palate: A striking balance of sweet vanilla and creamy toffee that quickly evolves into robust cedar wood, warm malt, and a vibrant, crackling peppery kick.
-
Finish: Remarkably long and warming, leaving a distinct, signature trail of sweet, sophisticated smoke on the tail.
