Johnnie Walker Gold Label Reserve represents the gold standard in blending. The luxurious, multi-layered whisky offers a smooth balance of sweet fruits and creaminess with a light smoke.

The flavors of Gold Label Reserve pop over ice and brighten when served as a tall drink with handcrafted soda water infused with fruits such as grapefruit or lemon.

"Gold Label Reserve features some of my favorite whiskies, including casks of Clynelish single malt Scotch whisky, whose water source flows from the Kildonan Hills – where gold was discovered in 1868," said Master Blender Jim Beveridge. "It's an exciting blend that offers a distinct new flavor for current Johnnie Walker fans and an appealing taste for people newer to Scotch whisky."

From its flavor profile and suggested serve to its unique bottle design, the Master Blender crafted this smooth and luxurious blend for responsible enjoyment during celebratory moments and spirited nightlife occasions.

"The Johnnie Walker journey continues as we introduce this striking offering to the U.S. for a limited time," said Brian Radics, Director of Scotch Whisky, Diageo. "Gold Label Reserve provides consumers with a unique flavor for high energy celebrations that may not have been traditionally looked at as a Scotch whisky occasions."
