Johnnie Walker Blue Label Year of the Wood Dragon Lunar New Year Limited Edition: A Royal Salute After 21 Years

In celebration of the Lunar New Year, Johnnie Walker has released a limited edition Scotch Whiskey that is sure to impress even the most discerning palates. The Royal Salute, which honors Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II on her Coronation Day in 1953, has been reborn as the Johnnie Walker Blue Label Year of the Wood Dragon Lunar New Year Limited Edition.

This exceptional Scotch Whiskey is aged for 21 years in oak casks and bottled in porcelain flagons, making it a true collector's item or memorable gift for any special occasion. The complex whiskey boasts rich, fruity aromas and sweet fragrance of autumn flowers, which precede deep intense flavors.

The intricate artwork on the bottle, designed by Asian-American artist James Jean, features an evergreen wood dragon that springs from bountiful flora and fauna, symbolizing life, creativity, and good fortune in the Year of the Wood Dragon. This design is a testament to Johnnie Walker's commitment to embracing the defiant optimism of 'keep walking'.

The whiskey has been finished in slow-growing KY oak, allowing for deeper whiskey saturation and resulting in a spirit that American whiskey collectors are sure to appreciate. The meticulous blending process involved finding exceptional bourbons from Tennessee and Indiana stocks, layering flavors through barrels as old as 20 years.

Each release in The Vaults collection is highlighted by bold flavors imparted by the specific wood in which it was finished, making this limited edition a unique and special experience for whiskey enthusiasts. With only extremely small batches produced, this Royal Salute after 21 years is truly a celebration of exceptional Scotch Whiskey.
