THE LEGACY COLLECTION Hokkien

The design of the second in the collection — The Legacy Collection Hokkien, is derived from theHokkien clan’s survival from persecution back in the Ming Dynasty by seeking refuge in a sugarcaneplantation, which then became a form of offering to the Jade Emperor known as ‘Tian Gong’, as a token of gratitude and worship. The design also draws inspiration from Hokkien Opera — a popular traditional performance practiced in Malaysia that is well-loved by the older generation, as well as one of the most distinctive Chinese clan houses in Malaysia, Leong San Tong Khoo Kongsi with elaborate and highly ornamented architecture — a distinctive symbol of the Malaysian Chinese presence in Penang.

Description

JOHN WALKER & SONS XR21 Legacy Collection Hokkien

JOHN WALKER & SONS XR21 Legacy Collection Hokkien.Honouring the cultural richness and diversity of the Malaysian Chinese community, Moet Hennessy Diageo Malaysia presents John Walker & Sons XR21 The Legacy Collection to celebrate the rich culture and heritage of the Malaysian Chinese community.

Created to honour Alexander Walker II’s knighthood from King George V, John Walker & Sons XR21 was inspired by Sir Alexander’s own handwritten notes. It was this inspiration that led Moet Hennessy Diageo Malaysia to introduce The Legacy Collection with the same spirit of celebrating the rich legacy of the Malaysian Chinese.

The history of Chinese in Malaysia dates far back to the 15th century where the Chinese community toiled the soils to become an integral part of the current Malaysia. Regardless of the hardships faced, the Malaysian Chinese were committed in ensuring that their dialects and culture were passed down and inherited by the new generation in shaping their unique identity over the centuries. This unique identity, impacted by the local Malaysian culture, allowed the Malaysian Chinese to create for themselves a kaleidoscope of values and beliefs, expressed and practised through their continuation of traditions, dialect, arts, craft and cuisine — in hope of sustaining their ancestry for future generations for legacy continuation.

Specially designed in partnership with local creative duo, Loka Made, The Legacy Collection features unique attributes of Malaysian Chinese clans, namely Cantonese, Hakka and Hokkien on each respective bottle design and its packaging sleeve. Through Loka Made’s compelling design interpretation and expression, the three bottles feature an extensive range of elements that are unique to each of the three clans in Malaysia.

“John Walker & Sons XR21 is created using an extremely rare 3-step blending process reserved for our most precious whiskies. It celebrates not only our rich legacy but also the old blending craft of making exceptional whiskies. The Legacy Collection showcases the same endearing spirit to celebrate and honour the rich Malaysian Chinese culture, craft and traditions.” said Rajesh Joshi,Marketing Director of Diageo Malaysia.

Swift & Secured Delivery

My first order with Whisky.com, JOHN WALKER & SONS XR21 (Legacy Collection Hokkien). The delivery is swift and nicely packed when receiving, not to mention the service. It it very thoughtful to wrap separately the content with the original packaging. Have not tasted the whisky, shall share the experience again once tried.

  • Finish Wafts of Sherry-soaked raisins last and last.
  • Palate Herbal as it opens. This gives way to orange and lemon peels by the bucket-load, followed by another kick of smoky malt.
  • Nose Spiced apple, smoky oak and a little toasted brioche.
