Johnnie Walker & Sons Bicentenary Blend 28 Year Old

Volume: 700ml / ABV: 46%

The Bicentenary Blend from John Walker & Sons takes inspiration from the items found on an inventory for the original store opened by John Walker 200 years ago. Master blender Jim Beveridge and his team has created a 28 year old blended Scotch whisky from some rare, exciting stocks, including expressions from Pittyvaich, Cambus and even Port Ellen.

Tasting Note

Nose

A complex, rich whisky with layers of flavour in which an array of fruit aromas come together in harmony, balanced with warming spices and a soft, rolling smoke redolent of the rich array of exotic goods on offer. Dried fruit such as sultanas and figs are sweetened by hints of candied ginger, before berries, brown sugar and aromatic spices fill up the senses.

Palate

The first sip opens the doors to reveal delicious layers of spice mingling with sweet honey and rich molasses inspired by the rows of tempting jars. Waves of sultanas, cocoa beans and herbal notes are carried on wisps of soft smoke leading you further down the aisles of John’s store with every sip.

Finish

A sweet spice lingers as the door closes behind you.
