Inspired by the unique flavors that come out of the distilleries from each of Scotland's four corners, Johnnie Walker is now introducing the Johnnie Walker Black Label Origin Series to explore the flavors of the country. Each bottle in the series is said to dive deeper into the signature smoke, fruit and vanilla notes of Johnnie Walker Black Label, all the while offering a "guided tour of the whisky-producing regions."
This new collection of blended Scotch whiskies shares the brand's passion for Scotland's single malts and offers the chance for new depths of flavor to be discovered. While Johnnie Walker Black Label Speyside Origin is described as light and fruity, the Johnnie Walker Black Label Highlands Origin differs by being rich and dark with red berry and stone fruit notes.
