Johnnie
Walker Blue Label and Porsche Design
Studio partner to launch exclusive
collection.

Johnnie Walker Blue Label, the pinnacle
of Blended Scotch Whisky from the House
of Johnnie Walker, has joined with
Porsche Design Studio, one of world’s
best known and exclusive design houses,
to create the Johnnie Walker Blue Label
Collection by Porsche Design Studio, a
range of exceptional gifts for men.
The two iconic, aspirational, luxury
brands, sought after by men the world
over, both with a commitment to heritage
and modernity, have designed four
exclusive pieces – led by a
made-to-order £100,000 Private Bar – for
men who want to celebrate with Johnnie
Walker Blue Label, a statement of
genuine style and substance.
Crafted from the finest materials the
collection has been created to celebrate
the perfect serve of Johnnie Walker Blue
Label and is led by the select Johnnie
Walker Blue Label Private Bar. A state
of the art motion sensor activates its
automated opening sequence, during which
sections of the Private Bar effortlessly
pivot and slide to display: a magnum of
cask strength Johnnie Walker Blue Label
with exterior detailing imagined by
Porsche Design Studio; two bottles of
Johnnie Walker Blue Label and four
crystal glasses. They are presented on a
subtly illuminated and precisely angled
surface which sits at exactly 24
degrees, like the bottle’s label, and
highlights the perfect serve of Johnnie
Walker Blue Label.
Equally desirable, are three other
design classics – The Johnnie Walker
Blue Label Cube, Johnnie Walker Blue
Label Mini Cube and Johnnie Walker Blue
Label Chiller.
"The Johnnie Walker Blue Label
Collection by Porsche Design Studio, is
the result of a shared vision between
two iconic, luxury brands.
"When you buy a product which has been
designed by the Porsche Design Studio
you know that you are celebrating a real
moment of achievement – it is exactly
the same with a bottle of Johnnie Walker
Blue Label."
Roland Heiler, Managing Director of
Porsche Design Studio in Zell am See in
Austria, said: "The Porsche Design
Studio is known for its technical
characteristics and we have used these
to create pieces that command a special
status and are completely unique. A
commitment to both modern and classic
design principles is evidenced through
the material selection and surface
treatments. The visible technologies are
a mix of traditional and high-tech.
These combine to make the objects
exceptional and sets them apart from any
other gift packages."
Johnnie Walker Blue Label is one of the
rarest whiskies from the House of
Johnnie Walker, created using the age
old principles of blending excellence
established by the family’s 1867 Old
Highland Whisky. Only sublime, rare
whiskies at the pinnacle of perfection
are used in its blending, with only 1 in
10,000 casks containing whisky of
sufficient character to deliver its
remarkably smooth signature taste. Each
is handpicked by the Johnnie Walker
Master Blender, himself part of an
unbroken lineage of Master Blenders
stretching back over 190 years - it is
the ultimate expression of whisky making
today and a remarkable achievement for
the modern era. |
