About this deal

The entrance for Gold Label Reserve is a little thin and watery, which contrasts with the tremendously expressive scent. It takes time for the flavours to truly hit the tongue. However, once they do, they are a pale version of the characteristics in the scent, with honeyed malt, apricot, and raisin. Well-known for its buttery smoothness, it begins with a wonderful burst of delicate nectar and mild smokiness, then moves on to sweet fruits and deeper, velvety, honeyed tones before concluding with lovely, lingering whispers of smoke and oakiness.

Gold Label Reserve offers whisky lovers a distinct flavour for high-energy gatherings that may not have historically been thought of as a Scotch whisky occasion. Taste: Developing on the tongue – layers of vibrant and tropical fruit, with a distinct creamy vanilla flavor. Johnnie Walker Gold Label Reserve has a highly sweet and fruity scent with honey, apricot, and raisin . These fruit notes are enormous and jump out of the glass the minute it is poured. Underneath these fruity notes is a very slight smokiness, a little salinity, a touch of oak spice, and a hint of barnyard hay.In 1857, Alexander Walker — Johnnie Walker's eldest son — inherited the store and began improving its selection of single malt Scotch whiskies. Alexander had previously apprenticed with a tea merchant in Glasgow and there, had learned the art of blending tea. Under his stewardship, the House of Walker began blending whisky and bottling it in an iconic, square bottle adorned with a slanted label. To develop such a diverse blend, their Master Blender searched his cellars for casks that had already matured to the point when their flavours were at their most vibrant. The strong, diverse flavours are carefully blended from classic malt whiskey and creamy Lowland grain whiskies to create the most finely balanced of luxury blends, complete with smokiness, and rich and fruity notes.

The Johnnie Walker Gold Label Reserve falls under the category of blended Scotch whisky. Like other Scotch whisky brands, it has an alcohol content of 40% Alcohol By Volume (ABV) or 80 US Proof. Created in 2013, the Johnnie Walker Gold Label Reserve was actually a substitute for the discontinued Johnnie Walker Gold Label. The Gold Label Reserve, like the majority of Johnnie Walker expressions, is a blended Scotch whisky, which means it’s a mix of single malt and grain whiskies from Scotland. Johnnie Walker Gold Label Reserve is created for memorable nights out with incredible companions which are friends and family. How to enjoy drinking Johnnie Walker Gold Label Reserve? In a highball glass, combine Johnnie Walker Gold Label Reserve and crushed ice. Garnish with an orange slice and serve. This whisky can also be enjoyed pure, with a dash of water, or with your favourite mixer. The Gold Label Reserve is a quality product from the beginning. It’s well-boxed and has a heavy foil closure, so it’s a great joy when the cap is opened for the first time. The shadow moulding of Johnnie walking is raised from a heavy and well-designed piece of glass and filled with magnificent liquid colour.The Gold Label Reserve appears to be tailor-made for the premium crossover American Whisky drinker. It’s much more oak-heavy than the other Johnnie Walker products, it’s pretty sweet, and it has a very dry finish. Master Blender Jim Beveridge produced Johnnie Walker Gold Label Reserve, a Gold Medal award-winning blend, to commemorate over 200 years of blending. This iconic blend includes whiskies from Speyside and the Highlands of Scotland, as well as all other West Coast whiskies. It’s built around a core of single malt whisky from Clynelish, but also features spirit from the likes of Cardhu, Blair Athol, and grain whisky from Cameronbridge, all chosen for their sweet, honeyed qualities. It’s delicious neat but also mixes well, like in serves such as the bespoke Gold & Apple created especially for this blend (recipe below). Although we think for the best effect, you should drink it while singing Spandau Ballet’s classic ‘Gold’. That’s what we do. The Johnnie Walker Gold Label Reserve is a light amber gold drink, rich and smooth whisky with flavours of vanilla and dark fruit. This is a great testament to the harmonic partnership of Speyside and Highland whiskies, with a hint of smouldering embers from the West Coast.
