Johnnie Walker Blue Anniversary Blended Scotch Whisky
- $3500
The dazzling bouquet includes scents of malted barley, oatmeal, prunes, dark toffee, dark honey and double cream. Palate entry is warm, semisweet, caramel-like and woody; at midpalate charcoal, oloroso Sherry, dark honey, marzipan, candied walnut and even a touch of rancio are added. Aftertaste is warm with long-lasting oily/buttery/creamy flavors. A wonderful…

Johnnie Walker Blue Label
- $220
A honey-colored whisky with a spicy, smoky fragrance. The first sip is surprisingly sweet and honeyed, then the smoke gently creeps in like fog at dawn, softly surrounding the edges of the tongue.

Johnnie Walker Green Label
- $60
This maple syrup-toned spirit is a blend of Islay and Speyside malts, with no grain whisky added. The result is an effortless mix of lightly smoky and oaky caramel notes, and a smooth, velvety feel. A splash of branchwater amps up the peat quotient.

Johnnie Walker Gold Label
- $85
This amber blend of 15 whiskies, each aged at least 18 years, yields a mellow, balanced mix of sweet caramel, raisin and smoky notes, all lingering and pleasing. Serve chilled, possibly as a dessert pairing.

Johnnie Walker Blue 1805 Blended Scotch Whisky
- $25000
The first nosing passes find fruity aromas with a dash of sweet oak; aeration dries out the fruitiness while oaky astringency and bean-like vanilla characteristics prevail. The palate entry is parchment-like, nutty and mildly toasty; at midpalate the flavor profile is Sherry- and honey-like. Finishes semisweet, medium sappy/piney and compellingly warm. Available…

Johnnie Walker Blue Label King George V Edition Blended Whisky
- $600
Slightly disappointing bouquet features smells of roasted walnut, figs, dates and beeswax. Palate entry is honey-sweet, fruitcake-like, with flavors of pineapple, apricot and white raisins; midpalate becomes deeper with layers of oak, resin, oloroso Sherry, dark caramel, dark bittersweet chocolate and egg cream. Concludes with power and grace. Delicious.

Johnnie Walker Swing Blended Whisky
- $65
Biscuity, caramel and floral opening aroma; further air contact stimulates scents of baked bread, toasted bread, buttered popcorn and light smoke. Flavor is dominated by sweet toffee and fudge notes. Sweetest and most buttery of all Johnnie Walker expressions.

Johnnie Walker Black Label
- Online Exclusive
- $34
This deep amber spirit, a blend of over 40 whiskies, has a sweet, deeply caramel scent, with a tinge of dried fruit. The flavor is oaky, smoky and dry; a little ice water mellows it nicely and coaxes out some burnt-caramel and raisiny notes. Lingering, moderately smoky finish.
