Johnnie Walker Black Label 456 Squid Game Limited Edition is a discontinued collector release issued in October 2024 as part of an official Diageo and Netflix collaboration ahead of the second season of Squid Game. Each bottle in the run is individually numbered from 001 to 456 using variable print technology, with the specific number assigned at random, making every bottle a unique collector piece. The Striding Man on the bottle is reimagined in a green tracksuit echoing the show's costume design, and the front label is rendered in a deep green and white colorway with a numbered tag. Inside the collectible bottle is the same iconic Johnnie Walker Black Label 12 Year Blended Scotch Whisky that has defined the brand for over a century, a marriage of approximately forty single malt and grain whiskies all aged a minimum of twelve years. Bottled at 40% ABV in a 750ml format, this is a defining release for collectors of Johnnie Walker, pop culture spirits collaborations, and the wider Striding Man limited edition series.

FAQ
Is this bottle individually numbered? Yes. Each bottle in the Squid Game edition is uniquely numbered from 001 to 456 using variable print technology, applied to the front label. Specific number requests cannot be accommodated and the assigned number is randomly selected at the time of order.
Is the whisky inside different from regular Black Label? No. The liquid inside is the same iconic Johnnie Walker Black Label 12 Year Blended Scotch Whisky. The Squid Game release is a limited edition design treatment, not a new blend.
Is the Squid Game edition discontinued? Yes. Production was tied to a single promotional cycle and the release is no longer in production. Available stock continues to deplete from the secondary market. The standalone A Song of Ice and Johnnie Walker Limited Edition Bundle are also worth exploring for fans of the brand's pop culture series.
