A whisky of legacy and distinction, Johnnie Walker XR 21 Year Old was inspired by the handwritten blending notes of Sir Alexander Walker II, grandson of the brand’s founder. Every drop embodies the elegance and precision of a master blender’s touch, matured for 21 long years to achieve harmony between depth, smoothness, and complexity. This “No Box” edition delivers the same luxurious experience, the whisky itself, unadorned yet uncompromising.
