What’s so special about the Johnnie Walker’s Blue Label?
The Blue Label is an exquisite blend of some of the world’s oldest and rarest Scotches, together with some younger whiskies to help enliven it. According to Johnnie Walker, only one in ten thousand casks has the quality, character, and flavour needed to deliver this mixture’s signature taste. As such, a selection of rare casks from the Speyside and Highland distilleries, as well as Islay malts, are used to create this luxurious, multi-layered blend.
The Blue Label continues to be the brand’s most expensive and prestigious whisky and one of the most super-premium blends on Earth. It has thus far gone unchallenged thanks to the exquisite taste of its multi-layered palate and silky delivery.
What’s in the Blue Label CNY gift pack?
This Blue Label CNY gift pack is stored in a beautiful box adorned with artwork by acclaimed artist James Jean. Jean’s intricate masterpiece perfectly captures both the essence of the Lunar New Year tradition and the spirit of innovation that Johnnie Walker is known for. The bottle continues this trend, emblazoned with a flowery, wave-like serpent to celebrate the prosperity and elegance of this special Blue Label Chinese New Year limited release.
Is Blue Label more expensive than Black Label?
Yes. Johnnie Walker’s Blue Label is the most expensive and valuable of the brand’s bottles. While pricier than the Black Label, its opulent taste makes it worthwhile.
Blue Label taste profile
The Blue Label’s palate starts with a velvety combination of vanilla, honey and rose petals – before broadening out to include a zesty orange flavour with notes of hazelnut, sherry and dark chocolate.

How to drink Johnnie Walker Blue?
Here are some ways you can enjoy your Blue Label during your CNY celebrations:
- Neat: Pour the whisky straight into a glass, then take slow sips to appreciate the flavours fully.
- With a splash of water: Adding a splash of water will help open up some of the deeper flavours.
- With ice: Adding ice to your whisky will make for a refreshing experience, but it may also significantly change the flavour. Consider the amount and shape of the ice to find the balance that works for you.
- In a cocktail: Try mixing a classic highball; simply fill a tall glass with ice, add a measure of your favourite Label, then top with your mixer of choice and a garnish. Everything is on the table! Coke, ginger ale, lemonade – anything goes.
