How

'Single' Whiskies

get married

"Here in Scotland," said. Johnnie Walker, "we don't marry the single' or separato whiskies until they

have matured for long years in the

wood and are old enough to be blended as Johnnie Walker. The Blender then has a large number of fully matured whiskies at his disposal, and from these he achieves that blend of perfect harmony which is Johnnie Walker.

"Every time you drink Johnnie Walker you realise how happy the marriage has been, and so you will always ask for Jolannic Walker by name.”
