Black Ruby is the third expression in the Johnnie Walker Black Collection, following the iconic Black Label and the bold Double Black. As the sweetest and smoothest variant in the range, it brings a luxurious new layer to the collection — one crafted to take centre stage.
Blended using rich, fruity malts — most notably from the state-of-the-art Roseisle distillery in Speyside — Black Ruby offers a distinctive character, matured in ex-Oloroso and Pedro Ximénez sherry casks. The result is a whisky with deep berry notes, sweet spice, and a velvet-smooth finish.
