Product Description

Johnnie Walker Blue Label Elusive Umami is a pioneering expression inspired by the enigmatic flavour also known as the fifth taste. Umami possesses a mysterious quality that ignites our senses, revealing sumptuous taste, complexity and depth. Master Blender Emma Walker and world-renowned Chef Kei Kobayashi have joined forces and years of expertise to create this exquisite blended Scotch whisky. Selected casks from inland and coastal distilleries are hand-picked at the height of their maturation for their unique Umami profile -- only one in 25,000 casks succeeds in bringing this elusive character to life. A beautifully balanced Scotch of sweet and savoury flavours, with notes of blood oranges and red berries with wood spice, a touch of smoked meat, a hint of salt and pepper with a long, sweet fruit finish. Best served ice cold with caviar to unlock the full depth of this unique sensory experience.

What critics and judges wrote

Whisky Advocate · Jonny McCormick · 2023
The nose is precise but flavorsome with a whiff of smoked venison … The velvety mouthfeel displays flavors of honey-glazed orange, caramel, dried cranberry, and a brief savory note of peppered steak.

Distiller · Jake Emen
A savory-umami characteristic shows on the nose with wet, earthy moss and fresh-picked mushrooms, along with notes of caramel and candied oranges. … The finish is long and spicy, with raw honey, expressed citrus peel, marzipan, and a bitter-nuttiness.

Flavor scores are our estimates. A flavor scores higher when more critics mention it and when they describe it more strongly, so no single review sets the result. They are not a rating from any publication.
