Johnnie Walker is the most popular blended whisky in the world, producing hundreds of millions of bottles a year. Within those millions are occasional releases of some rare whisky; this is one of those. Port Ellen is a closed distillery, from which there is only a little liquid left – and it’s used in this blend. With lots of sandalwood, sherry notes and a sweet background, it develops on the palate with sweet smoke and fresh fruit coming through.
