Johnnie Walker whisky

Johnnie Walker is a blended Scotch whisky brand owned by Diageo, sold as a ladder of coloured labels. This page lists the Johnnie Walker bottles in stock at the UK retailers we check.

The ladder runs by what the label states: Red Label, Black Ruby, Double Black, Gold Label Reserve and Blue Label carry no age statement, while the 18 Year Old’s youngest whisky is at least 18 years old. Blue Label is bottled at 40% ABV, and the ‘one in 10,000 casks’ line is Johnnie Walker’s own claim. Limited editions such as the Blue Label Ghost & Rare bottlings sit alongside the core range.

The business began with John Walker’s Kilmarnock grocer’s shop in 1820, and Cardhu on Whiskipedia picks up the story. Prices are the best current in-stock offer from the UK retailers we check (how we compare prices).

Is Johnnie Walker Scotch or Irish?
Scotch. Johnnie Walker is blended Scotch whisky, which by law means malt and grain whiskies distilled and matured in Scotland for at least three years, under the Scotch Whisky Regulations 2009. The business began when John Walker opened a grocer’s shop in Kilmarnock in 1820, and John Walker & Sons bought the Cardhu distillery in Speyside in 1893. See Cardhu on Whiskipedia.
Does Johnnie Walker Blue Label have an age statement?
No. Blue Label is bottled at 40% ABV and carries no age statement, and Johnnie Walker says only one cask in 10,000 is selected for it, including some from long-closed distilleries; both are the producer’s own claims. The 18 Year Old is the label in the core range that does state an age, meaning its youngest whisky has spent at least 18 years in cask.
