Johnnie Walker Double Black Label – Bold & Smoky Blended Scotch Whisky
Johnnie Walker Double Black Label is the daring sibling of the classic Black Label, crafted for whisky lovers who crave a deeper, richer, and more intense Scotch experience. It combines the mastery of decades of whisky blending with a bold smoky character, resulting in a complex and satisfying dram that’s perfect for sipping neat or in sophisticated cocktails.
A Bold Evolution of a Classic
Inspired by the iconic Black Label, Double Black Label takes the signature style to a new level of intensity. The whisky is crafted by Johnnie Walker’s team of expert makers led by Master Blender Emma Walker, who carefully selected whiskies aged in deeply charred oak casks and smoky malts from Scotland’s West Coast. This unique combination results in a whisky with an unmistakably rich, smoky depth.
Award-Winning Excellence
Johnnie Walker Double Black Label’s quality has been recognized worldwide. It earned the prestigious Double Gold Medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition 2023 — a testament to its superior craftsmanship and complex flavour profile.
Rich Flavour Profile
This blended Scotch whisky opens with spiced cloves that ignite the palate, followed by dried fruit richness that adds warmth and depth. Notes of orange peel and vanilla provide a gentle sweetness that balances the lingering peat smoke, creating a multi-layered finish that’s both smoky and smooth.
The interplay of smoky peat and sweet spice makes it ideal for whisky enthusiasts looking for a whisky that delivers power without overwhelming the senses.
Crafted for Versatility
Johnnie Walker Double Black Label shines when enjoyed neat or on the rocks, allowing drinkers to fully appreciate the depth of smoky flavors and complexity. For those who enjoy whisky cocktails, Double Black offers a bold base for creative mixes, adding a smoky edge to classic drinks like the Old Fashioned or whisky sour.
Its versatility means it fits perfectly into any occasion—whether relaxing after a long day or celebrating with friends.
The Art of Making Double Black Label
The whisky’s distinct character is the result of careful blending and maturation. The use of deeply charred oak casks adds extra smokiness and rich tannins, while selecting malt whiskies from the West Coast of Scotland infuses the blend with naturally smoky and peaty notes.
This intricate crafting process is overseen by the Johnnie Walker master blending team, ensuring consistency and quality in every bottle.
