- Description
- Johnnie Walker's XR 23 Year Old blends rare malts and grains from Diageo's reserves, including stock from the closed Brora distillery, creating a sophisticated and complex Scotch. With two decades of maturation, this expression develops deep layers of dried fruit, spice, and subtle oak influence balanced by grain-forward smoothness. The palate is elegant and warming, with a refined finish that rewards slow sipping. A prestige blend suited to special occasions or those seeking the depth that age and careful selection bring to blended Scotch.
