Tasting Profile
- Nose: Honeyed dried fruit, orange zest, light smoke and warm spice.

- Finish: Lingering and softly smoky, with a touch of polished wood.

What does the art mean? Three snakes shedding skins, for wisdom and renewal.

About the Distillery
Johnnie Walker's story starts in a Kilmarnock grocery in the early nineteenth century, where the Walker family learned that blending several whiskies gave a steadier, more rounded result than any single cask.
