Pat's Whisk(e)y: The Grand Finale

Johnnie Walker Black Label 12 Year Old 1990s

Johnnie Walker is arguably the most popular and recognisable blended Scotch on the market. Its core range includes the standard Red Label and Black Label, introduced in 1909 and named, quite simply, after their packaging. The iconic “striding man” motif was first drawn by Tom Browne the year prior. The premium Blue Label brand was introduced in 1992, and is composed using malt whisky from some of the most sought after distilleries in Diageo’s extensive portfolio. Today, many of these distilleries are only still with us due to their importance to the Johnnie Walker blends during the difficult 1980s period for the industry. A true champion of the whisky world.

J&B Rare Scotch Whisky 2 Litre

A longstanding name in the world of blended whisky, J&B began as a Wine & Spirits merchants in London's Pall Mall in 1749. The operation was originally set up by Italian immigrant Giacomo Justerini and business partner George Johnson.  Ever since 1761 they have been a supplier to each British monarch since the coronation of King George III in 1761. The company was bought and renamed as Justerini & Brooks by Alfred Brooks in 1831. Brooks began investing heavily in creating a signature blend which would become known as J&B Rare. The blend battled heavily with rival Cutty Sark for dominance in the United States and after the brief pause due to prohibition, J&B became a massive hit with the Americans whilst enjoying sales of one million cases per year. The brand was purchased by International Distillers & Vintners (eventually Diageo) in 1962 and is still included in the company’s portfolio today.

This lot will include a two bottle shipping fee.

J&B Royal Ages 15 Year Old De Luxe 1970s / Dateo Import

A very rare and unusual blend produced by Justerini and Brooks during the late 1970s.

Justerini & Brooks was established in 1831 when Alfred Brooks acquired the business founded by wine merchant, Giaccomo Justerini, which had been located in Pall Mall since the mid-18th century. The company was quick to catch on to the emerging popularity of whisky after blended Scotch was introduced by Andrew Usher in the 1880s. They acquired great stocks of whisky from Scotland and introduced their own blend for their clientele in London. This blend evolved into the now classic J&B Rare expression, introduced in the 1930s and specifically designed to capture the newly re-opened American market following the repeal of Prohibition. By the 1960s the brand had become a huge success, aided by associations to cultural icons like the Rat Pack who were seen drinking it on stage. The company amalgamated with W&A Gilbey to become International Distillers & Vintners (IDV) in 1962, giving it a portfolio of four distilleries in Scotland; Auchroisk, Knockando, Strathmill and Glen Spey, all of which still provision the J&B blend to this day. In 1972, IDV was acquired by Watney Mann, and six months later, by Grand Metropolitan, the high-profile merger of which with United Distillers in 1997 made Justerini & Brooks a subsidiary of Diageo, who continue to operate it as the fifth best-selling blended Scotch brand in the world.

Royal Lochnagar 12 Year Old

Royal Lochnagar is so-called after it was bestowed with a Royal Warrant by Prince Albert and Queen Victoria following a visit in 1848. The popularity of the distillery’s Begg’s blend saw it acquired by John Dewar & Sons in 1916, who later became part of DCL, upping the demand for its whisky from other brands in their portfolio, including Johnnie Walker. Today it is part of Diageo, their smallest distillery by some margin, making the modest amount of its single malt spared for bottling increasingly sought after. 

Prior to the formation of United Distillers in 1988, the distilleries within the DCL portfolio were often licensed out to its blending companies, and in the case of Royal Lochnagar it was former owners, John Begg Ltd. Their 12 year old bottling replaced the Haig's Glenleven blended malt within the Ascot Malt Cellar range, an early DCL precursor to the Classic Malts range launched later that decade.

When the classic malts was launched, Royal Lochnagar was not included, but United Distillers continued to market the distillery's brand, re-launching this 12 year old alongside the Selected Reserve. For many years they were the most expensive permanent product in the Diageo portfolio.

James E. Pepper is an important figure in the history of US distilling, campaigning in 1890 to get the state of Kentucky to allow him to bottle his own whiskey at the distillery rather than to sell it by the barrel to distributors. He was also chief proponent of the Bottled in Bond Act in 1897, along with Colonel E.H Taylor Jr, and was the first to introduce the strip stamp that became a legal requirement on such products.

The original distillery was purchased by the Schenley company shortly before the repeal of Prohibition, who demolished it and built a new distillery under the James E. Pepper name. It operated until 1958 when it again fell silent before being rebuilt in 2017, filling its first barrel just before Christmas that year.

Batch #2 resulted in 1,077 bottles.

Jura 2006 Douglas Laing 12 Year Old

The Isle of Jura is one of the most isolated in the Hebridean archipelago, and by all logical accounts an unusual place to build a distillery. However, the historic site was re-opened in the 1960s, in part to provide jobs to what was a declining population at the time. The rebuilding of the distillery was backed by blenders Charles Mackinlay & Co, so like Bruichladdich, despite the island being covered in peat, it produced an un-peated spirit to meet the needs of their blends. This continued into the 1990s when Whyte & Mackay became its owners, although they did eventually introduce some peated malt to their distilling, launching the Jura Superstition in 2003.

Douglas Laing & Co was established in 1948 by Fred Douglas Laing, affectionately known as “FDL.” The company started out as a blending business, but over time their focus shifted towards independently bottlings single malts. Fred died in 1982, leaving the business to his two sons, Stewart and Fred Jr, who eventually carved it up in 2013, with Stewart leaving to establish Hunter Laing. Fred Jr and his daughter Cara now run Douglas Laing, which continues to bottle single malt and has also revived its blending business. Additionally, the company has recently moved into distilling as well, announcing plans to construct the new Clutha distillery in Glasgow, and taking over Strathearn in Perthshire in 2019.

For many years the Provenance brand was produced by Douglas McGibbon & Co, a subsidiary of Douglas Laing. When the company was carved up between the parent firm and the newly established Hunter Laing in 2013, the Provenance brand became part of the main Douglas Laing portfolio., forming the entry level of their Exceptional Single Casks range.

Johnnie Walker White Walker 1 Litre

Johnnie Walker is arguably the most popular and recognisable blended Scotch on the market. Its core range includes the standard Red Label and Black Label, introduced in 1909 and named, quite simply, after their packaging. The iconic “striding man” motif was first drawn by Tom Browne the year prior. The premium Blue Label brand was introduced in 1992, and is composed using malt whisky from some of the most sought after distilleries in Diageo’s extensive portfolio. Today, many of these distilleries are only still with us due to their importance to the Johnnie Walker blends during the difficult 1980s period for the industry. A true champion of the whisky world.

This was a limited edition blend from Johnnie Walker, who endured a number of bizarre transmogrifications in 2018, first into a woman, and then a grumpy wall-astern snow zombie. Still Scottish then, at least.

The White Walker of course is the frosty non-blonde villain army from the HBO behemoth, Game of Thrones, and this release was just the first in a series that saw Diageo reimagine many of its Classic Malts.

In keeping with the theme, the blend contains single malt from Cardhu and Clynelish; \"one of Scotland's northernmost distilleries,\" and is chill filtered to 1.5°.

The bottle also instructs you to freeze it \"for an unexpected icy reveal.\" Whisky Auctioneer does not condone drinking frozen spirits.

The company was bought and renamed as Justerini & Brooks by Alfred Brooks in 1831. Brooks began investing heavily in creating a signature blend which would become known as J&B Rare. The blend battled heavily with rival Cutty Sark for dominance in the United States and after the brief pause due to prohibition, J&B became a massive hit with the Americans whilst enjoying sales of one million cases per year. The brand was purchased by International Distillers & Vintners (eventually Diageo) in 1962 and is still included in the company’s portfolio today.
