Johnnie Walker, Blue Label Azure
Johnnie Walker Blue Label Azure was launched as a travel retail exclusive in May 2026. It's a limited edition blended Scotch whisky created by master blender Emma Walker. Inspired by coastal landscapes, it dials up the fruit and citrus notes compared to the usual Blue Label blend. Experienced tasters will also notice more prominent smoke and vanilla flavors. Each bottle comes packaged in a branded cooler bag designed in collaboration with Colombian fashion designer Johanna Ortiz.

This expression is bursting with fresh citrus fruit on the nose: lemon and lime, even the sweet bitterness of grapefruit coming through on the nose. It's almost tart on the palate, with lemon peel mixing with biscuity softness and a creamy texture. This has all the makings of a lemon meringue pie, but it doesn't feel like a dessert whisky. It's more of a palate cleanser, something fresh to be taken before the start of a salty Mediterranean meal. The finish does bring a trademark whisp of smoke and age, but this whisky is all about the fresh vibes. Outstanding in the sense that it delivers exactly what it promises.
