【Johnnie Walker】
Johnnie Walker, also known as “John Walker”, originated in the town of Kilmarnock, Ayrshire, Scotland. Founded in 1820, Johnnie Walker is now Diageo's Scotch whisky brand and one of the most famous brands in the world. Johnnie Walker, founded in 1820, is now Diageo's Scotch whisky brand and one of the world's best-known whisky brands. In 2004, it was ranked 13th on Forbes' list of top luxury brands, making it the highest-ranked whisky brand in the world.
Johnnie Walker Zuni was named after a farm boy named John Walker, whose father died in 1819, the same year he opened a grocery store in the town of Kilmarnock. At the time, most groceries sold single malt whisky, but the quality was inconsistent. John blended the whisky to give it a consistent quality and sold it under the trademark “Walker's Kilmarnock Whisky”, which was a great success. 1857 saw John's death, and the lucrative estate passed to his son, Alexander Walker. Alexander Walker. At a time when Britain was at the heart of the industrial revolution and transportation was excellent, Alexander saw an opportunity to sell Johnnie Walker's first bottle of “Old Highland Whisky” in 1867 and worked with shipmasters to sell it. In 1867 he sold the first bottle of Johnnie Walker under the label ‘Old Highland Whisky’ and worked with ship captains to ship Johnnie Walker's spirits around the world. It wasn't long before he began using the famous square bottle to minimize damage in transit, and he also adopted a distinctive label with a 24-degree tilt, which is very recognizable.
In 1909, Alexander's sons, Alexander II and George, renamed their wines and decided to use a series of color labels, resulting in the Red Label and Black Label. At the same time, they adopted the logo designed by illustrator Tom Browne, the “Walking Gentleman”, a small man with glasses, hat and cane, knee-length pants, overalls, and a likeness of founder John Walker, walking to the right. As Zuni continued to evolve, so too did the figurines on the logo: the figures became simpler, as did the details of the clothing. The longer the bottle was bottled, the clearer and more specific the face of the logo became. From then on, it became “Johnnie Walker”, the gentlemanly image of Edward Era. This image represents Johnnie Walker's pursuit of high quality, just as Johnnie Walker's brand philosophy “Keep Walking” says: “Keep walking, never give up.” On January 1, 1934, Johnnie Walker received the Royal Warrant of Approval from King George V, making it the Royal Whisky of the Household to this day.
