JOHNNIE WALKER // SCOTLAND
Our anniversary WUG club meeting was one in which we each pooled our money to make the purchase of Johnny Walker~Blue Label. Although expensive at a $199 price point, it was a smooth beverage.
Johnnie Walker Blue. Some may be surprised to know that this is a blended Scotch. As it is blended with old and young whisky and from rare stock containing extinct distilleries, one understands the confusion. Released in 1992, Johnnie Walker Blue has become one of the most recognizable and prestigious whiskies on the market.
