said Johnnie Walker

"... that makes us take a short holiday from distilling in the summer months. It is because there are certain processes in the distilling of whisky which call for cool weather and naturally cool fresh water; even a swift- running Highland stream is not quite.cold enough all the year round for all the processes of fine distilling.

This holiday we give to whisky-making is just one instance of the care taken in distilling, maturing and blending the Johnnie Walker you enjoy on a fine summer day. When you hear the soda fizz into the glass and the ice tinkle, you know (if you have asked for Johnnie Walker by name) that you are going to have a really good drink.”
