Johnnie Walker Blended Whisky Valuations
Do you want to know the value of your bottle of Johnnie Walker whisky?
Johnnie Walker is a type of blended whisky, read on to find out how much it is worth.
The Value & Sale of Johnnie Walker Whisky
Johnnie Walker is the world’s most well known brand of whisky; the distinctive square bottles adorned with the iconic striding man are available in almost every country in the world. Despite being teetotal himself, Johnnie Walker began selling whiskies in 1825. He created bespoke blends in his Kilmarnock store that were created to the individual customers’ tastes.
Blended Johnnie walker whisky is made using a distinctive combination of high quality single malts that give it its unique flavour and quality. The brand is synonymous with style, even down to the precise angle at which the renowned label is applied.
How much is your Johnnie Walker whisky worth?
The value of a bottle of Johnnie Walker whisky varies hugely from less than £50 to staggering 4-5 figure sums for some of the most limited edition bottles or old style labels and names.
That being said, despite their popularity with drinkers, generally speaking bottles of blended whisky simply do not command the same prices as their single malt counterpart. Blended whiskies are by their nature mass produced – in order to produce the distinctive character chosen by that blender – and as such are relatively easy to get hold of.
