Johnnie Walker Blue Label California Limited Edition 2026
80 proof (40% ABV) | 750mL | 2026 Cities Series limited edition | Individually numbered — the Johnnie Walker Blue Label California Limited Edition 2026 is the Golden State chapter of the brand's collectible Cities Series: the same iconic Blue Label blend — rare reserves including whiskies from long-closed "ghost" distilleries, with only about 1 in 10,000 casks deemed suitable — wrapped in California-inspired artwork: the Hollywood sign, the Golden Gate Bridge, palm trees, and the Pacific coastline.
The liquid is pure Blue Label: master blenders selecting whiskies at peak maturity, blended for honeyed vanilla, layered fruit (sherry-soaked raisins, orange peel), dark chocolate, and gentle smoke in a silky, velvety texture with warm spice, seasoned oak, and a long finish. The Cities Series (New York, Miami, Las Vegas, Washington D.C., Chicago, Texas, and California) is built for both the shelf and the glass — designed to be enjoyed or displayed, in individually numbered bottles. A Scotch whisky collector's piece from the world's best-selling Scotch house — available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor in San Diego, CA.
