Life in Luxury’s guide to: Johnnie Walker Royal Route

Royal Route

Since 1820, the Walker family have been inspired adventurers. They traversed the globe in search of new and rich experiences. Taking cue from this illustrious history of the Walker family, the Johnnie Walker Explorers’ Club Collection was created and three special whiskies were crafted.

The journey started with the Spice Road before leading on to the Gold Route and now, the pinnacle of the Johnnie Walker Explorers’ Club Collection, Royal Route.

This most recent and final release is also the most luxurious blend of the collection, reminiscent of the road of Kings, the opulent and the most precious gifts found along the route.

It is a unique blend, rich in evocative flavours, yet deftly balanced and matured in oak casks from the reserve cellars. For the modern explorer, this truly is the perfect gem to return with.

So, start exploring.
