Johnnie Walker has entered the apr\u00e8s ski occasion for the first time with the launch of its limited edition Blue Label Ice Chalet.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Created in collaboration with luxury skiwear and lifestyle brand Perfect Moment and fronted by Johnnie Walker Blue Label ambassador and Perfect Moment shareholder Priyanka Chopra Jonas, the new blend is inspired by \u2018Blue Hour\u2019 \u2013 the moment between sunset and twilight on the slopes when skiing turns to socialising.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Created by master blender Emma Walker, Ice Chalet offers notes of cinnamon-spiced apple that give way to warm cloves and spices before finishing with subtle hints of Alpine smoke.<\/p>\n

Only one in 10,000 casks meet the requirements to be included in the blend, resulting in a \u2018rich warmth that is perfect after a day on the slopes\u2019.<\/p>\n

Walker commented on the release: \u201cWhen creating Johnnie Walker Blue Label Ice Chalet, we set out to blend a whisky that was inspired by the Alpine landscape and captured the magic of special Apr\u00e8s Ski moments.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cUsing Met Office data, we uncovered rare expressions that were distilled in the depths of Scotland\u2019s coldest winters and blended these with whiskies from some of our most northern and highest altitude distilleries, including Dalwhinnie, Clynelish and Brora, to create a velvety smooth Scotch with Johnnie Walker Blue Label\u2019s signature depth of flavour at its heart.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The Brora in the blend is from the reopened distillery\u2019s old stock, and as an addition, Ice Chalet is one of the first from the brand featuring whisky from Roseisle Distillery.<\/p>\n

Building on the brand\u2019s luxury and culture strategy, the limited edition Ice Chalet is the second drop in the Cobalt series. It follows the launch of Johnnie Walker Blue Label Elusive Umami last year, created in partnership with Chef Kei Kobayashi.<\/p>\n

The partnership will also see Perfect Moment launch the Ice Chalet capsule ski wear collection, featuring coordinating designs.<\/p>\n

In the new limited release, the Johnnie Walker square bottle meets Perfect Moment\u2019s North Star and houndstooth print in a deep blue reversible bottle bag crafted from a new liquid blue and silver fabric. After removing the whisky, the bottle bag doubles as a crossbody bag to enable the wearer to transition from the slopes to the city.<\/p>\n

Chopra Jonas, actress and producer, stated: \u201cA perfect moment of mine has always been the apr\u00e8s ski, a moment which brings together fashion and socialising, best complemented by a great drink and a chic outfit.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cJohnnie Walker Blue Label Ice Chalet offers everyone a little slice of that \u2013 no matter where they are \u2013 with a smooth whisky that perfectly mirrors the freshness of the slopes and a crossbody bag that looks as good in the snow as it does by the fireside.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
