The 2026 Lunar New Year edition of Johnnie Walker Blue Label celebrates the Year of the Horse in collaboration with Hong Kong-born, London-based haute couture designer Robert Wun. Known for surrealist designs, bold silhouettes, and an innovative approach to luxury fashion, Wun channels the Horse's spirit of strength, resilience, and forward momentum into a sculptural bottle design of sweeping textures and flowing lines — the horse charging toward the future in vivid blue and gold. The partnership brings together two worlds of craftsmanship: the centuries of blending expertise behind Johnnie Walker Blue Label and Wun's mastery of modern luxury. The liquid inside is the same exceptional Blue Label blend — 1 in 10,000 casks selected from Johnnie Walker's unparalleled reserves including irreplaceable stocks from long-closed ghost distilleries — blended by Master Blender Emma Walker. Each bottle is individually numbered. Bottled at 46% ABV (92 proof).

Tasting Notes
Color: Deep amber gold
Nose: Dried fruits, rich honey, roasted hazelnuts, and rolling waves of subtle pepper and spice. Layers of vanilla and gentle smokiness develop with air.
Palate: Velvety and smooth — dark chocolate, sandalwood, dried fruit, and hints of sherry. The ghost distillery casks bring a depth and complexity that is distinctly Blue Label: luxurious, layered, and long.
Finish: Exceptionally long — smoky oak, gentle spice, and lingering fruit warmth.
