Johnnie Walker The Directors Blend

From Johnnie Walker's Directors Blend series, the 2009 release. The Directors Blend as a concept was conceived by David Gates, Global Director at Diageo. The idea was to create an annual release to help stimulate the discussion of blends produced by Diageo. Produced in very small quantities, around 500 bottles per release, was then gifted to Diageo directors around the globe. The idea was that the bottle would be shared, discussed and enjoyed. 

6 of these limited edition bottlings were released, the first being launched in 2008. This 2009 release is a bold blend created to celebrate the richness and intensity of their west coast whiskies. A smoke blend crafted by Master Distiller Jim Beveridge.
