About this deal

A straight Bourbon bottled at 95 proof (47% abv), Statesman is still available as part of Old Forester’s Whiskey Row series. This is a very exciting time to be part of the UK whisky industry.

4. The oldest Johnnie Walker bottle in the Diageo archive in Menstrie has a snake in it... no really

Johnnie Walker’s dystopian-looking, futuristicsquare bottle has become a swiftly recognisable reference to Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner, while a certain fictional Anchorman’s love for Scotch leaped out of the screen when his name was put to a blended Scotch. Our Service is an online platform which provides Members with information (e.g. bottle facts, market-indices, market values and prices) on (mostly) whisky and allows Members to add information to the platform. We do not sell, nor does the Service provide any option to buy, any alcoholic products. If any provision of these Terms is held invalid, the remainder of the Terms shall continue in full force and effect. Johnnie Walker released a one-off limited edition whisky blend in a distinctive, futuristic-shaped bottle in honour of the release of the Blade Runner 2049 film. The new whisky made an appearance in the new Sci-Fi movie. Without prejudice to the section Liability below, the Service may be temporarily unavailable during maintenance, updates, etc. We shall make reasonable efforts to inform you of any unavailability due to maintenance or updates.

The Fairy Flag is a little-known Scottish independent fantasy film beset with issues delaying its release. Based on the legendary romance between the chief of the McLeod clan and the faerie queen Titania, it boasts some notable alumni from the film industry including David Lee, who was a cinematographer on the Tom Hanks movie Cloud Atlas, and comedian Ross Noble. Last year’s Bond parody sequel Kingsman: The Golden Circle spawned not one, but two whisky spin-offs. To match the refined sophistication of the Kingsman agents, GlenDronach distillery partnered with film studio 20th Century Fox to bottle a 1991 Sherry cask-matured GlenDronach. Kingsman director Matthew Vaughn chose the vintageas it reflects the birth year of the film’s protagonist, Eggsy.

Whiskybase B.V. is registered with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce under no. 52072819. Lloyd’s tile design is quite specific and offers good features (relief variations) to obtain a nice rendering in 3D. Also, when we talk about “tiles”, it often means less work in texturing for a 3D artist. It could have been a small job if I stopped there but as an unconditional fan of the movie I wanted to have a realistic preview on walls. So, I did some architectural research on Frank Lloyd’s house in Los Angeles, watched some movie scenes over and over again and found very interesting content on propsummit.com (a free community discussing the props of the film Blade Runner). I drew some plans on paper then transferred them into 3DS Max. After showing this scene to friends Cedric Delcourt and Olivier Heninand, we immediately had the same idea: put Oculus in there!” Johnnie Walker is also getting in on the act as excitement starts building for Game of Thrones’ final season, which airs in 2019. The Scotch brand has unveiled White Walker, a new edition of the blended whisky also due for release this autumn. The logo features an imposing White Walker – one of the show’s undead villains – dressed to resemble Johnnie Walker’s iconic striding man. Brace yourselves… Scotch is coming.

Whisky reviews for Johnnie Walker Black Label

The Cibi 030101 Double Old Fashioned Glass was first produced by Italian glass makers Arnolfo di Cambio, and was designed by Italian designer Cini Boeri in 1973.

This autumn, spirits giant Diageo is to release eight single malts inspired by cult TV series Game of Thrones, with each bottling named after Westeros’ seven great housesand the Night’s Watch. Whiskies will come from Lagavulin, Oban, Talisker, Cardhu, Royal Lochnagar, Dalwhinnie, Clynelish and The Singleton. Johnnie Walker describe the new blend as having “our trademark smokiness and a contemporary twist… with sweet fruity vanilla flavours and is bottled at 49% ABV for added intensity” and as a nod to the date the film is set, no doubt. The Blade Runner whisky glass is made from hand blown crystal glass by the original Italian company since 1974. These heavyweight Cibi stunning glasses command respect. Designed by Cini Boeri, made by Arnolfo di Cambio, and tried and tested (a little too frequently) by Film and Furniture.

Blade Runner and The Cibi Glass

Having learned of the art of blending tea, John transferred the technique to whisky in an attempt to make a more consistent product from the single malts, which could often fluctuate in quality. Because Harrison Ford and Sean Young were rumored to have been less than cordial with each other. I have no idea if this rumor is true, but the hot scene works very well on many levels. It’s like “make up sex” on the first date. The Blade Runner glassis thedouble old fashioned glassfrom the Cibi collection, designed by Cini Boeriand made byArnolfo di Cambio, makers of Italian handmade crystal since 1963.

Four years old and bottled at 80 proof (40% abv), the bottle features a screen-printed image of Southfork Ranch, the Ewing family residence. Unlike most of the bottlings on this list, J.R. Ewing is still in production, available in liquor stores all across Dallas. Film franchises often transition from the big screen into our everyday lives, as Happy Meals, or Lego sets, even onto clothing. But an increasing number of films, TV shows and even games are sneaking into our homes as bottles of whisky.Scotland's best selling whisky, with sales of 9-litre cases topping 18m last year, has a long and illustrious history. At first, he did this for regular customers on request but eventually, he would make regular batches for regular buyers, settling on smoother recipes which balanced out the impurities of the single malts of the time and this would go on to form the basis of the blended whisky category we know today. 3. The first brand `Old Highland Whisky’ was created in 1867 It quite simply means a whisky that has been distilled, matured and bottled in Scotland. Scotch Whisky is made in a range of styles, but they are all produced from the same three humble ingredients, grain, water, and yeast. All Scotch Whisky is matured in oak casks for at least three years, yet usually most producers age them for considerably longer.
