John Walker & Sons King George V commemorates the granting of the Royal Warrant on 1 January 1934. It is created using only the finest whiskies from distilleries that were operating during George’s twenty-five-year reign (1910 – 1936), some of which, like the famed Port Ellen, no longer exist. They are blended together to reflect the distinctive Johnnie Walker style of the era. Nose: A mix of heady toffee apple and very faint smoke Thick syrupy malt digestive biscuits oak Palate: Soft buttery toffee and general fruitiness Finish: Medium, dry finish.
