"It's
older
and better
than ever
- said Johnnie Walker
Only whisky that has matured for long years in the wood is used in the blending of Johnnie
Walker; and thanks to the huge stocks of whiskies which have been laid down through- out the years, Johnnie Walker is older and better than ever.
All over Scotland these fine whiskies are.. patiently maturing, waiting to give, when ́skilfully blended, that
and " roundness " harmony which has always been a distinctive feature of Johnnie Walker. Remember to look for the famous square bottle; remember to ask for Johnnie Walker by name.
