Johnnie Walker Swing (so named for the rocking motion of the bottle when pushed) has been around since it’s creation.
Created in 1932 by Sir Alexander Walker, the uniquely shaped bottle will sit and ‘swing’. This was in fact the very last blend created by Alexander Walker and today still features the ‘Striding Man’ in his original pose of walking from right to left, while all other Johnnie Walker scotch’s now feature a left to right moniker.
It was introduced for international travellers by Johnnie Walker’s genius grandson Sir Alexander Walker towards the end of his long, illustrious career.
The Swing is a multi-year blend from Speyside, Highlands and Islay and is noted for its rich, golden colour and silky smooth palate with inherent sweetness. A rich old gold colour and a nose of almost perfumed sweetness, Swing is smooth with a light freshness that covers a deeper fruitiness with some smoke and oak flavours.
