How should Johnnie Walker Red Label Blended Whisky be best enjoyed?

Johnnie Walker Red Label is an incredibly versatile whisky. Beyond drinking it neat to experience its bold spice, it is highly recommended served in a Highball (with ice, soda water, and a lime wedge) or mixed with ginger ale for a Johnnie & Ginger. Its powerful flavor remains distinct even in mixed drinks.

What is the difference between Johnnie Walker Red Label and Black Label?

Red Label is the entry-level expression, characterized by bold, vibrant spice and smoke, making it excellent as a cocktail base. Black Label, aged for a minimum of 12 Years Old, is richer, smoother, and features deeper fruit and smoky notes.

Where do the whiskies used in the Red Label blend originate from?

Johnnie Walker Red Label blends up to 35 different whiskies, primarily combining light malt whiskies from Scotland's East Coast with deep, smoky whiskies from the West Coast to create its rich and balanced flavor profile.

Read More About the Brand Story

The history of Johnnie Walker began in 1820, when John Walker opened a grocery store in Kilmarnock. While most grocers at the time sold single malt whisky, the quality often varied. John began experimenting by blending different whiskies together to ensure consistent and exceptional flavour in every bottle. This dedication to quality started Johnnie Walker's legendary two-hundred-year journey.

Red Label was created to meet the global market's demand for a whisky 'that could hold its powerful flavour in mixed drinks'. Alexander Walker inherited his father's ambition, creating an expression with more character and defined layers than the prevailing whiskies of the time. Red Label retained the lightness of East Coast Scottish whiskies while incorporating the deep smoky characteristics of West Coast whiskies. With the debut of the famous 'Striding Man' logo and the unique square bottle design, Johnnie Walker quickly became one of the most recognizable spirit brands globally. Its 'Keep Walking' ethos symbolizes the constant pursuit of progress and excellence, which is the core reason for Red Label's enduring success over the past century.
