In honor of [John Walker](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/johnnie-walker-2), the founder of the brand Johnnie Walker, the Johnnie Walker company enlisted Linea Packaging to create a one-of-a-kind bottle for The John Walker limited-edition whiskey.

The bottle itself was designed according to Linea with "[...] the distinctive slanting label becomes an integral part of the structural design, uniting the multiple facets of the decanter. [...a] 24 carat gold plated neck collar bearing the inscription "The John Walker" rests under the prestigious crystal stopper."

The John Walker bottle comes with a handblown [Baccarat](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sauvage-elixir) crystal decanter. The beautifully designed bottle comes in a wooden case that is varnished in a rich caramel. The concept from Linea is perfect to honor John Walker, considering its elegant and interesting outlook.
