Tastes mossy, moldish. Better on 2nd sip. Meh!
About this bottle
Elusive Umami was made in collaboration with Master Blender Emma Walker and Chef Kei Kobayashi whose Paris restaurant Kei was re-awarded three Michelin stars in 2023. Building on the foundation of Johnnie Walker Blue Label, the pair sought to capture the fifth taste known as umami which is often described as savory. Selected casks from inland and coastal distilleries were used with only 1 in 25,000 casks having that flavor profile. Available globally for a limited time as of October 16, 2023 with pre-sales beginning October 2nd. (SRP $369.99)
