Johnnie Walker is pushing boundaries again with Black Ruby, a new take on its iconic Black Label that leans into rich berry flavors and deep caramel undertones. Crafted by Master Blender Emma Walker, this latest expression takes the brand’s signature depth and dials up the fruit-forward intensity, layering notes of raspberry jam, maraschino cherry, and fig over a smooth, smoky base.
The secret? A blend of aged malts matured in PX Oloroso sherry and red wine-seasoned casks, giving Black Ruby its unmistakable dark fruit profile. Ex-bourbon barrels round things out, adding honeyed sweetness and vanilla warmth, while a subtle wisp of spice keeps the finish balanced.
Johnnie Walker’s latest release isn’t just about tradition—it’s about evolution. Whether sipped neat, on the rocks, or worked into modern cocktails, Black Ruby shifts expectations of what a blended Scotch can be. It’s a bold move for a label that’s always been about walking forward, this time with a sweeter, darker edge.
For those looking to experience it first-hand, Johnnie Walker Princes Street in Edinburgh offers exclusive access to Black Ruby. Visitors can purchase a bottle directly, sip it at the 1820 Rooftop Bar, or explore its flavours as part of the Johnnie & The Chocolatier Experience.
