Johnnie Walker Double Black is an intense and smoky blended Scotch whisky that builds on the classic Black Label style with greater depth and boldness. Crafted from a selection of whiskies matured in heavily charred oak casks and featuring a higher proportion of peated malts from Scotland’s west coast, Double Black delivers a richer, more powerful interpretation of the Johnnie Walker house style while maintaining balance and smoothness.
Deep amber in colour, the nose is immediately expressive with layers of peat smoke, charred oak and dried fruit supported by notes of vanilla, spice and subtle citrus. Hints of dark chocolate, toasted wood and a faint maritime influence add further complexity.
The palate is full-bodied and robust, offering flavours of rich caramel, vanilla and dried fruit intertwined with pronounced smoky peat and warming spice. The influence of heavily charred casks adds depth, with notes of toasted oak and a slight sweetness balancing the intensity. The finish is long and smoky, with lingering spice, dark sweetness and a persistent smoky character that defines the style.
Johnnie Walker Double Black is a bold and modern expression, well suited to those who enjoy a richer, smokier take on blended Scotch whisky.
