Diageo has unveiled the 50-year-old John Walker Masters? Edition, made using whiskies from distilleries that existed during the lifetime of the Johnnie Walker brand founder.
In high anticipation of HBO show Game of Thrones eight season (returning in 2019), Diageo, the owners of the classic Scotch whisky makers Johnnie Walker, have turned the temperature way down on their iconic “Striding Man” for an aptly named, limited edition “White Walker” blended spirit.
Back in June, we checked in on some of the distilleries and bars experimenting with sound-aged or pressure-aged whiskey. To that, Endless West would like to say, “Pffft.” (We are not saying pfft, Cleveland Whiskey is good stuff.)
Choosing a good whisky can be a challenging task — particularly if you don’t have much experience drinking it. Even pronouncing the names of some of the Scotch whiskies like Bruichladdich and Allt-a-bhainne can be difficult for many casual whisky drinkers!
