It’s quite likely that everyone is relieved that 2020 is coming to an end. It has been quite an unprecedented – and traumatic, in some cases – voyage for all of us, which is why these Diageo Malaysia festive packs are timely additions to your shopping cart. You can get them from online retailers, including the Johnnie Walker Malaysia’s Bar, as well as certain grocers.
Johnnie Walker Aged 15 Years Sherry Finish
Johnnie Walker Master Blender Jim Beveridge, carefully selected the finest single malt whiskies that have been matured for at least 15 years and finished in ex-Sherry oak barrels, which adds sweetness and depth of flavour. With flavours of candied fruits and an exquisite floral fragrance, it pairs well with Asian cuisine. The pack comes a gold-rimmed whisky glass and pourer.
Johnnie Walker Gold Label Reserve
Luxurious and smooth, the Johnnie Walker Gold Label Reserve boasts notes of vanilla, dark fruit and just a hint of smouldering embers. The striking metallic bottle emphasises the gold-standard craft and ‘golden whiskies’ used in the crafting of this blend, and makes the perfect gift with the accompanying gold whisky carafe.

The Singleton of Glen Ord 18 Year Old
John Walker & Sons XR21
Created to honour Alexander Walker II’s knighthood from King George V, John Walker & Sons XR21 was inspired by Sir Alexander’s own handwritten notes and filled with flavours of sweet luscious fruits with toffee, hints of vanilla and golden honey notes. As its name suggests, all the whiskies used for this blend are aged for a minimum of 21 years and drawn from extremely rare Johnnie Walker reserves. Look out the Chinese-influenced rock glass with metal coaster that comes with this pack.
The Singleton of Glen Ord 12 Year Old
Rich and smooth, The Singleton of Glen Ord 12 Year Old is all about great flavours and taste. A long fermentation process of up to 75 hours, combined with slow batch distillation and maturation in both American and European oak casks, creates a rich and rewarding single malt whisky that beautifully balances lightly cleansing fruit notes with gingery toasted maltiness.
The Singleton of Glen Ord 18 Year Old
This is a more complex experience of flavours on the palate, less spicy but more mature, and slightly darker in colour and deeper in flavour than its sibling. Notes of cherries and apples on the nose are followed by dried summer fruits, rich raisins and apricots on the palate before a smooth, rich chocolate finish. This is definitely the one to savour as the clock ticks into the new year.
