Johnnie Walker Lunar New Year — Year of the Goat

Johnnie Walker Blue Label Lunar New Year Year of the Goat is the 2027 edition of the brand's annual Chinese zodiac collection, released ahead of Lunar New Year on February 6, 2027.
The blend brings together mature malt and grain whiskies to balance rich fruit, honeyed sweetness, oak and restrained smoke. The individual distilleries, cask proportions and ages used for this particular edition have not been disclosed. The Year of the Goat release is primarily a celebration of the blend's heritage and artistic presentation, rather than a new cask finish or maturation style.

Tasting Notes
Nose: Wildflower honey, dried fruit and candied citrus peel with roasted hazelnuts, vanilla and gentle smoke.
Palate: Velvety and layered, with rich caramel, dark chocolate, ripe orchard fruit, toasted nuts and warming spice.
Finish: Long and elegant, with lingering cocoa, polished oak, delicate sweetness and a subtle thread of peat smoke.
