Descripción

Part of a trilogy of  three new expressions – Johnnie Walker Blenders’ Batch Rum Cask Finish, Johnnie Walker Blenders’ Batch Wine Cask Blend, and Johnnie Walker Blenders’ Batch Espresso Roast – were unveiled by Diageo in September 2017.

Johnnie Walker Blenders’ Batch Espresso Roast (43.2% abv) is described as a “deliciously rich, smooth and meticulously crafted blended Scotch with punchy notes of rich coffee and dark chocolate”. It is the result of Gibson’s experiments using an inventory of whiskies distilled using barley roasted “more heavily than ever before”. The whiskies have been matured in a combination of rejuvenated casks and first-fill Bourbon casks.

Nose: Coffee cream chocolate, stout/porter beer, nutella on brown cinnamon toast, dark chocolate truffles, some earthy smoke and chicory.

Palate: Roasted coffee beans, chocolate porter, mocha fudge, dark vanilla, plum pudding, malty and dark treacle and honeycomb.

Finish: Coffee fudge, chocolate stout, roasted malt, earthy and aromatic notes, dark ginger cake.

A whisky chaser that would be great with a chocolate stout or a whisky cup of joe!
