Johnnie Walker Aged 18 Years is an indulgent blend of up to 18 different whiskies each chosen for their remarkable depth of flavor and character. The new name and luxury packaging celebrate the award winning blend's credentials as the best 18-year-old blended Scotch whisky ever created by Johnnie Walker.It is hand-crafted by Jim Beveridge twice voted Master Blender of the Year who sought out the ultimate combination of complex and smooth 18-year-old whiskies drawn from the main whisky producing regions of Scotland including classic Speyside malts, such as Cardhu, Glen Elgin and Auchroisk known for their sweetness and elegance; fruity and complex Highland Malts including Blair Athol and beautifully aged island malts that introduce a subtle smokiness. The great whiskies Ive chosen for this blend have matured through at least 18 cold winters and warm summers. Its a long time to wait, but its worth it.
