The third and final expression in the Johnnie Walker Masters of Flavour series has been unveiled by the brand as a premium spirit that comes with its own digital keepsake to boot.
The whiskey features a blend of spirits from the brand's four ghost distilleries including Glenury Royal, Glen Albyn, Brora and Port Dundas. The spirits have been aged for at least 48 years and come in an emerald green Baccarat Crystal decanter held inside a wooden cabinet.
The ultra-exclusive Johnnie Walker Masters of Flavour whiskey is limited to just seven bottles, which are each paired with a unique NFT artwork. Priced at $35,000, the artwork can be redeemed for a bottle of the spirit starting December 1, 2022 and is available from BlockBar.
