Fans of Johnnie Walker Blue Label will want to add this to their liquor cabinet. A limited edition of 200 bottles of the Johnnie Walker Blue Label 1805 Anniversary Pack have been produced. The whisky is a tribute to Johnnie himself and is a blend of whiskes that are at least 45 years old. The whisky is even more prized because it contains whiskies that are predominantly from distilleries that no longer exist. Drinks Business Review reports that the whisky comes in a Victorian- style writing case with an antique nib pen and a replica of Alexander Walker's (John Walker's grandson) original handwritten recipe book. It will sell for $27,000.

Sorry folks, but anyone who will spend more than about 40 bucks for a blended, multi malt whisky (no matter how parts of the blends are), is, in no uncertain terms, a poser, no matter how expensive it is.

if you click onto the link it says "Canadian whiskey company Johnnie Walker is celebrating the 200th birthday of its founder with the release of an exclusive whisky blend, valued at $27,000 per bottle."

When was Johnnie Walker a canadian whiskey company?... I'm confused...
