On 29 September Johnnie Walker announced a limited-edition Blue Label blend dedicated to India’s festive season. The project marks the second year of collaboration between the brand and Indian couturier Rahul Mishra.
The whisky was created by master blender Emma Walker, who says she was inspired by the balance of spice and harmony in Indian cuisine. The profile described by the company includes cardamom, saffron, rosewater, citrus, honeyed sweetness, chocolate-dipped fruit, warm spices and a gentle hint of smoke. Like every Blue Label expression, the blend draws on the rarest whiskies in the brand’s reserves — the company says only one in ten thousand casks meets the Blue Label standard.
The edition is exclusive to the Indian market, and the launch will be accompanied by dedicated events and experiences. No price has been announced.
The festive edition is not available in Moldova, but at Mister Tabaco you can find Johnnie Walker Blue Label 0.7 L, the classic expression of the range.
