To celebrate Chinese New Year 2016, Johnnie Walker \u2013 the most widely distributed brand of blended Scotch whisky in the world \u2013 will add the \u201cYear of the Monkey\u201d limited edition to its Blue Label family, offering a perfect gift for business travellers to pick up on the go.<\/p>\n

The new bottle design features Chinese calligraphy with blue brushstrokes and golden hints and monkey king Sun Wukong in The Journey to The West, one of the four great classical novels of Chinese literature. When placing four uniquely white porcelain bottles side by side, the canvas unfolds to a stunningly beautiful visage, depicting monkeys leaping into the New Year with joy and a daring spirit. A blue colour-way edition is also available in selected markets.<\/p>\n

\u201cJohnnie Walker Blue Label Year of Monkey special release truly marries the best of Chinese ceramic art with the very finest blend of Scotch whisky,\u201d says marketing director of Diageo Brands Drew Mills. \u201cThis classic combination introduces unrivalled creative elements to the global whisky market, and I\u2019m confident it will quickly become the premier choice for discerning collectors.\u201d<\/p>\n

The new bottle will be available for sale at retail outlets in January 2016.<\/p>\n
