Tasting Notes

Dewar’s are owned by Bermuda spirits company, Bacardi limited. Their blended whiskies are structured around Aberfeldy single malt, also made at the same distillery in Perth and Kinross, Scotland. Using around 40 whisky varieties, these comprise single malts and grain spirits in their blends. Dewar’s have 6 bottles in their core-range; their signature White Label, plus their 12, 15, 16, 18 and 25 year old expressions. Prokop, Andrew (August 21, 2017). " Game of Thrones season 7: the White Walker twists of 'Beyond the Wall', explained". Vox . Retrieved October 15, 2017. The uncertain times led to a merger between Dewar’s, Buchanan’s, the Distillers Company (which owned grain distilleries) and John Walker & Sons in 1924/5. The Walkers, however, bargained hard not to be subsumed within this new whisky behemoth: “What came out of this merger, which was as the Walkers had intended, were cost savings on the production side but companies that still quite aggressively competed with each other in the marketplace.” Johnnie Walker preserved its semi-independence until the Distillers Company was bought by Guinness in 1986. Alexander Walker II, John’s grandson, was the last family member to run the business. Downs and ups:

And how does one become a master blender? What skills does one need? Mouthfeel: Johnnie Walker Red Label has a light-bodied mouthfeel, with a hint of warmth to it. Without the addition of water, the whisky is not overly coating or drying on the palate, though adding water helps release the more subtle notes. For me, it’s pretty thin in texture, though there’s an underlying pepperiness that provides a gentle tingle on the tongue. Johnnie Walker White Walker isn’t the only GoT inspired offering. They have two others – Johnnie Walker A Song of Ice and A Song of Fire – corresponding with House Stark and House Targaryen. FAQ The nose of this whisky boasts aromatic notes of freshly-brewed coffee, dark chocolate, sweet honey, toasty oak and smouldering peat smoke. On the palate, are dry cereals, light spices and roasted nuts that are pleasingly complemented by malty sweetness. The finish is long and smoky with a pleasant warming sensation. I’m a fan of what’s inside the bottle, but is it worth it? Let’s take a look at how much a bottle Johnnie Walker White Walker will cost you. As a note, prices will vary depending upon location and individual store.
