Formally referred to as Johnnie Blonde from Johnnie Walker, that is an avowed mixer from the model, “a brighter, sweeter whisky good for the fun-loving and the curious” and “some of the versatile whiskies the group at Johnnie Walker has ever made.”

Launching completely in Houston, Texas, the summery blended whisky is certainly as gentle as a feather from begin to end. The nostril is contemporary and gently grainy, however extra breakfast cereal than fresh-milled barley. Flippantly nutty with a sesame cookie notice, the whisky smells fully innocent, with a gentle, ethanol-driven astringency giving the nostril a contact of warmth. The palate is definitely on the candy facet, although with a easy whisky like this, that works to its favor. Notes of pepper and a few nutmeg perk up a butterscotch-heavy physique; although right here the sugar is pretty blunt, a white sugar or easy syrup character that provides the cereal notes a carry, however which provides little in the way in which of complexity. It’s tremendous as a mixer, actually, however nothing particular.

Sourced Cocktails is providing a limited edition cocktail kit (pictured above) with the whisky, however that is actually a two-ingredient providing (Johnnie Blonde and Fever-Tree Lime & Yuzu Soda) that you would be able to readily make by yourself. That stated, it’s a pleasant summer time sipper — the whisky pairing fairly properly with citrus — although notice the equipment can be accessible solely in Houston.

80 proof.
