{"product_id":"johnnie-walker-52-year-old-release-vii","title":"Johnnie Walker 52 Year Old (Release VII)","description":"\u003cp\u003eJohnnie Walker 52 Year Old (Release VII) stands among the most consequential ultra-aged releases ever produced by the historic Scottish house, created under Master Blender Dr. Emma Walker as a commemorative tribute to John Walker and his son Alexander—both of whom lived to the age of 52. The blend draws on just eight selected whiskies, including stocks from now-silent distilleries such as Brora, Glenury Royal, Glen Albyn, Glenlochy, Cambus and Carsebridge, alongside Dalwhinnie, forming a liquid record of Scotland’s closed distilling heritage and a profile of remarkable composure and depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReleased in 2018 in an edition of only 200 bottles worldwide, this is a museum-grade collectible whose scarcity is structural: most examples were allocated immediately through select channels, with many held in private and corporate collections. For collectors focused on blue-chip brand equity and long-term demand for ultra-aged statements, Johnnie Walker’s global recognition adds a layer of liquidity that niche bottlings often cannot match. The original launch price was reported at €22,500, while market levels have commonly been cited above €28,000—pricing driven less by sentiment than by the near-irrecoverable nature of the component whiskies from closed distilleries. As with all investment-aware spirits, acquisition is ultimately about securing authenticated, low-population stock where replacement is effectively impossible.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Collecto Archive","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53900251824468,"sku":"2243","price":22990.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0975\/9083\/7588\/files\/file-1757518472671-file-1756562550642-1.png?v=1773054172","url":"https:\/\/collectoarchive.com\/products\/johnnie-walker-52-year-old-release-vii","provider":"Collecto Archive","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
