How many colored labels does Johnnie Walker have and why?

There are 5 different brands of Johnnie Walker scotch, each represented by a specific label colour





Red is 8 years old, and not very good.


Black label is a delicious 12 year blend, a respectable scotch


Green label is an interesting 15 year blend


Gold label is 18 years, and quite good


Blue label is not designated by age, but rather is a blend of the rarest and finest scotch whiskys available at the time of distillation, it is highly sought after and very, very good.





There are also specialtiy brands, such as Blue Label: King George V edition, but they are just re-bottled versions of the common labels, sometimes with special blends/aging processes added.|||I have only seen red, black and blue. Wanted to try a shot of Blue the other night but when the barman asked 40$ US i settled for black. Liked it better than Chivas Regal.|||There is 5 different ones: Black, Red, Gold, Green, Blue





They were blended in their own distinctive way|||4. Black is not a color; it is the absence of color.
