Description

Johnnie Walker Blue Label King George V Edition is an ultra-premium blended Scotch whisky created to celebrate the first Royal Warrant granted to John Walker & Sons by King George V in 1934. This blend is crafted exclusively from whiskies sourced from distilleries that were operational during King George V's reign (1910–1936), notably including precious stocks from the now-closed Port Ellen distillery. It is presented in a luxurious decanter and a silk-lined display box, often accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
