Johnnie Walker Black Label The Director's Cut Blade Runner 2049 is a limited edition Scotch whisky released in late 2017 to celebrate the launch of the Blade Runner 2049 movie. This unique whisky is the result of a collaboration between Johnnie Walker's master blender Jim Beveridge and the film's director, Denis Villeneuve. Their shared vision was to create a whisky that embodies the futuristic essence of the movie. The blend comprises more than 30 single malts and grain whiskies, offering a smokier twist on the traditional Black Label style. Bottled at a robust 49% ABV, this 15-year-old whisky comes in a futuristic bottle that embodies the themes and aesthetics of Blade Runner 2049. The presentation box makes it an ideal gift for whisky lovers and fans of the Blade Runner series. Johnnie Walker's rich history dates back to 1820, when founder John Walker started his business as a delicatessen and tea blender. The shift to whisky wholesaling in the 1850s gave rise to the iconic slanting label, square-sided bottles, and the Striding Man logo, which catapulted Johnnie Walker to international fame. This bottle isn't just a fine Scotch; it's a collector's item that pays homage to the Blade Runner series and showcases the craftsmanship of Johnnie Walker.
