  To celebrate Chinese New Year 2016, Johnnie Walker added the “Year of the Monkey” limited edition to its Blue Label family. The new bottle design features Chinese calligraphy with blue brushstrokes and golden hints depicting monkey king "Sun Wukong" in The Journey to The West, one of the four great classical novels of Chinese literature. When placing four uniquely white porcelain bottles side by side, the canvas unfolds to a stunningly beautiful visage, depicting monkeys leaping into the New Year with joy.

   

  “Johnnie Walker Blue Label Year of Monkey special release truly marries the best of Chinese ceramic art with the very finest blend of Scotch whisky,” says marketing director of Diageo Brands Drew Mills. “This classic combination introduces unrivalled creative elements to the global whisky market, and I’m confident it will quickly become the premier choice for discerning collectors.” 43% Alc./Vol.

  'Baby Blue' - Your chance to experience the famous Blue Label for well under $100.

  The Blue Label blend echoes early pioneering days when Johnnie Walker would select a small number of whiskies in his own local grocery shop in order to create an outstanding blend for the specific tastes of a highly valued customer. John Walker and his son Alexander began their earliest blending experiments using a limited range of whiskies, drawn mainly from the islands, the western and northern Highlands and a few distilleries in Speyside. After rejecting whiskies that didn't meet their standards, they found that the very best were strictly limited in supply. Following their lead, the Johnnie Walker master-blender developed Blue Label as a celebration of the founder's unremitting standards for only the highest quality whisky.The blend is similar to the taste and character of some of the earliest whisky blends created in the 19th century, possessing a traditionally rich peaty taste combined with an exceptionally smooth, deep, distinctly malty flavour. Whiskies of up to 60 years old contribute to its character.

  This is a venerable whisky and one that would have been much appreciated by Walkers clients. A toasty, sweet aroma is complemented by a peaty, spicy notes that develop into heady flavours of oak, dark-chocolate and rich fruitcake. Typically composed of around 16 whiskies, it's dominated by Islay malt and balanced by several rich Speysiders that have undergone exceptional periods of sherry oak maturation.

  An unusual 760ml bottling of the iconic 'Swing', probably bottled for the Japanese market.

  In the 20's this blend was created for ocean liners, the decanter / bottle being designed with a rounded bottom, so that it will never tip over - just swing. A boon for the barmen who had to endure rough seas and a testimony to Sir Alexander Walker's ingenuity. Swing virtually disappeared for several decades to be recently re-launched as a super-premium blend. Its distribution remains largely confined to duty-free markets. 43% Alc./Vol.

  The pinnacle of the revered Blue Label marque.

  In a fitting tribute to its founder, the house of Johnnie Walker has launched The John Walker Blended Scotch Whisky, handcrafted from a small number of rare whiskies from distilleries that operated during John Walker’s lifetime. A very small quantity has landed in Australia.

  Blended as a tribute to John Walker’s pioneering legacy, the arrival of this remarkable offering is an exciting moment for Australian Johnnie Walker enthusiasts. This takes the essence of Blue Label to an extraordinary level of rarity and uniqueness.

  Sourced from nine distilleries, the whiskies used are a representation of what was available in John Walker’s time. They include the sweetness and softness of Cambus and Glen Albyn combined with the more powerful Mortlach and the elegance of Dailuaine creating a unique, structured blend with a refined smoky finish. The whiskies come together for a second and final maturation to marry the blend in a 100-year-old wood cask. Each single barrel batch (no two batches will ever be exactly the same) fills just 330 individually numbered, hand-blown Baccarat crystal decanters. So many big characters, malt and grain, smoke and richness, all held together in harmony and controlled balance with stunning smoothness.

  Other reviews.... The pinnacle of the current Johnnie Walker range, this is a rare, inimitable blend of just nine whiskies. It exudes the aromas of ripe bananitos, whole mango, satsuma, vanilla seeds, barley awns, butter biscuits, and crystallized pineapple. The supple grain sustains indulgent, characterful malts creating a weighty, smooth mouthfeel. I’m smitten by the vanilla creaminess, burgeoning deep fruit layers, how it swells with a satisfying snuffbox smokiness. A beautifully styled blend delivering a captivating, sensuous experience.

  An older release of the world's number one selling blended Scotch and the preferred choice of whisky lovers every where. Johnnie Walker Red Label is a full-flavoured spirit that is a blend of Highland malt and Lowland grain whiskies. Red Label was originally created in 1909 for the new Scotch drinker who was inclined to mix whisky with ice, water, soda or in a variety of cocktails. By widening the range of whiskies used in his father's Old Highland Whisky, Alexander Walker developed Red Label as a smoother and lighter alternative - this was a break from the traditional deeply flavoured, full bodied Scotch whiskies of the past and was considered a more approachable drink. By 1920, Johnnie Walker Red Label had become the first truly global drinks brand, sold in over 120 countries. In 1933, the company was granted a Royal Warrant to supply Scotch to King George V, and the company has remained an official purveyor to the British Royal Household ever since. In 1996, Johnnie Walker Red Label won the Gold Medal at the International Wine and Spirits Competition, having previously picked up Silver Medals over three consecutive years. It has also consistently garnered Gold and Grand Gold Medals at the Monde Selection Awards.

  Tasting note: Brilliant, bright gold appearance. Aromas offer a peaty top note hovering over sweet, fat, oily grains. The palate possesses good concentration with the peat laced sweet grains and gentle spices contributing to a fat, rich, oily mouth feel. Aftertaste of vanilla and sweet cereals with the peat re-emerging. Technically faultless and an achievement given how much of this stuff is churned out. But this bottling (and they do vary) is lacking freshness being quite sweet and clunky throughout. In fact, it's almost a little out of balance. Some fresh oak required in the mix? 40% Alc./Vol.

Numbered 'one' – the number of new beginnings and opportunities - the Magician card depicts a man with one arm stretched upwards to the heavens (while holding a glass of whisky), and the other pointing down to the earth, representing his connection between the spiritual and the material realms. On the table in front of him are the four symbols of the Tarot suits – a cup, pentacle, sword and wand – each symbolising one of the four elements – water, earth, air and fire. It is also a sign that he has all the tools (and elements) he needs to manifest his intentions. Above his head is the infinity symbol (in this case, a big red hat). 45.5% Alc./Vol.

  ABV: 57.3%

  North Star's Tarot Blend 'The Fool' has been crafted from single malts and grains matured for six years. The parcel of casks came from Edrington Group (owners of Macallan, Highland Park et al.), the malts reportedly held in refill Macallan/Glenlivet butts, with the majority of the grain component coming from North British (80%). Breaking the trend of mediocre blends at 40% with caramel colouring and filtration, this is not shy on intensity at 57.3%. It's our understanding nothing has been added - which is all the more unusual for the category. Fingal Crayton at Dramface.com commented, "...this blend offers a no-nonsense yet intriguing profile. It's a solid choice for those who appreciate the simple pleasures of a well-crafted whisky. I’m really hopeful that North Star Spirits continue this series with the rest of the tarot deck. Whether the rest are blends like this one or not, this is a fantastic start to this series. The value on offer here is unreal."

  Our tasting found a delicious blend leaning more towards malt whisky, despite the mash bill being grain heavy (that's probably due to a preference for maize rather than wheat at North British). A rich, oily cereal character fills the mouth before nuances of dried apple and cinnamon enter at the finish. Dangerously easy to drink uncut, the charming reproduction Tarot card-inspired label features a young man without a care in the world as he sets out on a new adventure. He's gazing upwards toward the sky (and the Universe) and is seemingly unaware that he's about to skip off a precipice into the unknown. Over his shoulder rests a modest knapsack containing everything he needs – which isn’t much (in this case a large Glencairn filled with whisky)! At his feet runs a small dog, representing loyalty and protection while encouraging him to charge forward and learn the lessons he came to learn. In short, the card speaks of new beginnings, opportunity and potential.

The sweeter, softer grain component dominates the mid palate, rounding off with flavours of sponge cake, light vanilla and white pepper. Non chill filtered for maximum flavour. 46.1% Alc./Vol.

  Notes from the bottlers... Nose: Peach melba and a flat white. Palate: Raspberry liquorice twirls. Finish: Frosted bon bons - a sherbert dip.

  ABV: 45.2%

  The first edition of North Star’s 20 Year Old ‘Spica’ is a cask strength grain and malt blend named after part of the constellation of Virgo, the 16th brightest star in the sky. Distilled in 1997 and matured in both European and American oak barrels, 1000 bottles are available world wide. Sold out in the UK, and no wonder - it's incredibly affordable for its age. We have a small allocation.

  Tasting note: Deep burnished copper / autumn leaf brown. Looks like a sherry bomb. Initial inhalations are slightly prickly, developing hints of roasted nuts, fruit cake, orange zest, pepper, raw sugar and vanilla (a little like well aged rum). Slightly lean and leathery on entry. Warm and spiced up delivery is dryish with restrained sherry input and a touch of sulphur through the aftertaste - a bit like an 'old fashioned' sherry style. So concentrated and spirity, this feels like a much higher strength. Best with water. 45.2% Alc./Vol.

  Other reviews... Colour: amber. Nose: This feels like rather a high malt content with these nice notes of Christmas cake, apple compote, liquorice and prune jelly. Also some figs, mulling spice and celery salt. Some greener apple and cider notes come in time along with some sharper wood spices. Mouth: the grain is a little more lively here but there’s still a richness and a breadiness which gives a nice sense of roundness and texture. Some oatmeal flapjack, orange marmalade and limoncello. Also some rather biting spiciness, rye bread and cedar wood. Good. Finish: Medium length, with some grainy bite, notes of blood orange, mustard powder and a touch of aniseed. Comments: A simple but perfectly pleasing thing to sip if and when winter ever returns. I liked the roundness that the sherry influence brought to proceedings. 84 points - whisky-fun.com

  Tasting note: [15ml sample] Independent bottlers, North Star are renowned for offering big age statements at modest price tags. Another incredible buy, this deeply coloured, three-decades-old blend smells like it's almost dripping in sherry (PX?), air time accentuating dates, fruity dark chocolate, pipe tobacco and trace sulphur. Less apparent wine input on the palate, but the delivery is everything you'd expect from a middle ager of this ilk. Malt-heavy with no shortage of richness (dark chocolate / dried fruits) and beautiful balance, with a vibrancy, lightness and length on the finish that suggests it's been bottled at ideal maturity. Non chill filtered. 45.5% Alc./Vol. 1000 bottles worldwide.

  Other reviews... Colour: gold. Nose: that’s right, a blend. Nice maltiness, breads, cakes, ripe fruits, old wine cellar, potpourri, liquorice, cherries, sweet mushrooms… It hasn’t got the higher definition of a good single malt, but it’s got a good complexity and I’m not sure we’re worse off for that. Mouth: same feelings. Fruitcake, dough, cherries, raisins, malt, then chocolate and tobacco and a touch of violet sweet. Or there, crystallised violet flowers, as they make in Provence. Finish: rather medium, and rather more on marmalade, oranges… Back to cherries, raisins and pepper in the aftertaste. Comments: reminds me of some folks that used to fit VW Beetles with genuine Porsche engines. Good, one Euro each and I drop my crappy car analogies and metaphors.

• Old St. Andrews Clubhouse Blended Scotch Whisky (500ml)

  $59. 99

  $719.88 Dozen

  Sold Out

  ABV: 40%

  Old St Andrews Whisky was founded in 1969 by Robert and Julian Haswell with the aim of bringing together Scotland’s greatest gifts to the world: whisky and golf. The first product was a large two litre bottle in a leather golf caddy cart that was developed for the Japanese market. Old St. Andrews Scotch whisky is stored and matured in oak casks previously used for sweet wines, sherry or port, which give it a delicious richness and roundness. The premium blend of carefully selected malt and grain whiskies, sipped neat or with water, ice or mixers will appeal to sophisticated whisky lovers everywhere.

  The first Clubhouse golf ball bottles were produced in 1987. Originally they were white - just like a golf ball - and the clear glass 'decanter ' clubhouse bottle was not produced until 1993. Since then it has become the company’s best selling product. 40% Alc./Vol.

  Tasting note: Nose: Clean as a whistle; both malts and grains are young but proudly so. A Speyside influence comes through loud and clear: mouthwatering. Taste: The early arrival is identical to the nose: clear as the morning dew on the first green and no less grassy. Finish: long with some grain gaining hold but bringing with it some soft vanillas. Balance: a fair way to start any day. How I love young blends: fresh and lacking any sort of pretensions. It has quality enough.

  A second arrangement from Lowland single malt producer, Bladnoch, combines their own malt at a minimum age of eight years with malt whiskies from Islay, Speyside and the Highlands, along with grain whiskies. As the name suggests, the final blend is finished in new (unused or virgin) American oak casks.

  Other reviews... Bladnoch master distiller Ian MacMillan’s blend is worth seeking out for its appealing freshness; green apple, caramel, shaved oak, toasted whole-grain bread, warm pastries, and dried peels. The palate is awash with bright flavors of honey, walnut, barley sugar, gingerbread in custard, orange taffy candy, and a little spice. It squeezes out more juicy peel oils the more you taste. The conclusion has sweet honey, gingerbread crumbs, and a citrus intensity. 92 points - whiskyadvocate.com

  ...Pure Scot's Virgin Oak expression is surprisingly full-bodied and peaty for a blended Scotch. An assertive smokiness comes through on the first sip, backed by vanilla, oak, and a touch of baking spice. That peat smoke comes through again on the finish with meaty, barbecue note. This is the kind of blended Scotch that could appeal to fans of American whiskeys, and it's a solid value too. 87 points - distiller.com

  Another bottle of liquid history lands. Blended and marketed by the now dissolved firm of RH Thomson & Co (Distillers) Ltd, which was founded in Leith in 1938, Thomsons went on to become part of the Distillers Company Ltd (DCL), the forerunner of Diageo. Beautifully presented but long discontinued, what we have here is something special indeed! The bottle is in very good condition considering it was likely purchased in the 1970s. We know that because the metric volume standard was introduced in 1980. Prior to that the standard was set as 26 2/3 fluid ounces (or near to. That was the average size of the traditional bottles produced by glass blowers in the 17th century).

  A remarkable value in the blended category.

  Gregor Hannah has managed to 'rescue' a cask that was destined to be lost in a big brand blend. You'll be thanking him for bottling it. This is a beautiful, medium-bodied example of the kind of blend rarely found on the market today. Malt drinkers will find pleasure in the depth and seamless integration of flavours that conjure leather, honey, dried coconut and milk chocolate coupled with hints of cigar box, Bounty Bar, light pepper and rancio in a long, mature finish. Over ten to fifteen minutes in the glass this continues to open up and reward. Gentle and effortless uncut, so best consumed neat or with a single ice cube or you'll lose its nuances. 248 bottles were drawn from a refill butt at 41.5% Alc./Vol.

  Other reviews... We’d already tasted another cask of this ‘blended when young’ style (ex-Edrington in theory) by Hannah Whisky Merchants, which had been very, very good (WF 87). Colour: full gold. Nose: tricky to pin down, but that’s not the point—here there’s glue, smoke, bitter almonds, maraschino, lanolin, pistachio cream (we’ve just come back from Sicily), and rich, black potting soil. All of it is rather lovely. Mouth: almonds and pistachios take the lead, though a pronounced salinity and a good helping of black tobacco add a fine contradiction, rounded off with a bit of coconut (grain component?) It’s an intriguing profile, certainly unusual. Finish: medium length, but saltier still. A faint tequila-like touch. Comments: these are very unusual whiskies, the sort that no master blender could ever hope to replicate. That sense of rarity adds undeniable charm to the whole affair. 88 points - whiskyfun.com

  Notes from the bottlers... This exceptional blended scotch whisky is created in our unique and special way by blending malt and grain whiskies from different distilleries and differing spirit styles. Each batch is small, bespoke and distinctly different from the last. Bottled and hand labelled in our own warehouse where you'll be glad to know, no artificial colouring or chill-filtration takes place. The latest edition to our blended Scotch brand family is a 'classic blend'. By this we mean a mix of malt and grain whiskies blended in the tradition style. The taste offered - Blood orange, custard creams, furniture polish, black pepper, hazelnut and dried coconut.

  A vintage bottle of Teachers from the 1990s. We are sure that a few of you, out there, would have partaken of this particular popular potation.

  William Teacher started work in a cotton mill aged seven; in 1830 he was employed by a small grocer in Glasgow. After marrying the owner’s daughter, he managed to arrange a liquor licence and opened his first 'dram shop'. These were well maintained public houses selling reasonable spirits. Twenty years later, Teacher was officially recognised as the largest licence holder in Glasgow. The Scotch Whisky bearing his name remains today blended & bottled in Scotland. While all blended Scotch Whiskies are made from either malt and/or grain spirit, Teacher's Highland Cream has an exceptionally high malt content - at least 45%. This is a feature which contributes to its unique character and flavour. The two core components are Glendronach and Ardmore. Glendronach is an exceptional sherry cask Speyside malt, produced in one of Scotland's oldest working distilleries. The heart of Teacher's 'rugged' flavour comes from Ardmore.
