Discover Johnnie Walker Blue Label Elusive Umami - a limited-edition Blended Scotch Whisky that embraces the world of taste in a pioneering expression from Blue Label. Inspired by Umami, one of the world's most hard-to-define and alluring profiles, Master Blender Emma Walker and world-renowned Chef Kei Kobayashi have joined forces and years of expertise to create this exquisite Blended Scotch Whisky. Selected casks from inland and coastal distilleries are hand-picked at the height of their maturation for their unique umami profile - only one in 25,000 casks succeeds in bringing this elusive character to life. Experience a beautifully balanced Scotch of sweet and savory flavors, with notes of blood oranges and red berries, a touch of smoked meat, and warming salt and pepper with a long, sweet fruit finish. Best served ice cold with caviar to unlock the full depth of this unique sensory experience. Honored with the Double Gold Award at the prestigious San Francisco World Spirits Competition in 2023.

The nose is precise but flavorsome with a whiff of smoked venison, then blood oranges backed by red currant, fresh raspberry, sherbet, orange fondant, and fragrant spices. The velvety mouthfeel displays flavors of honey-glazed orange, caramel, dried cranberry, and a brief savory note of peppered steak. A smooth comforting ending mingles mixed peel, grapefruit, and pink peppercorn with a briny hazelnut, butteriness, underlining the pairing recommendation for Ossetra caviar.
