"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.
