The Johnnie Walker Blue Label 'Year of the Horse' is a collectible, limited-edition Scotch whisky released to celebrate the Chinese Lunar New Year, featuring the iconic Blue Label liquid in a specially designed bottle with art by Robert Wun symbolizing power, ambition, and success, making it a prized item for collectors and whisky enthusiasts, known for its smooth, rich, smoky profile with notes of fruit, spice, vanilla, and caramel, often with a slightly higher ABV (43%) than standard Blue Label.
Tasting notes:
On the nose, it greets with spice, vanilla, and honey layered with dried fruits and a whisper of smoke. The palate is velvety smooth, offering rich notes of chocolate, hazelnuts, and caramel, unfolding into subtle spice and smoke. The finish is long, warming, and perfectly balanced with lingering smoky sweetness.
