Description
XR-21 Year of the Horse 2026 is a special limited-edition blended Scotch whisky from John Walker & Sons, created to celebrate the Lunar New Year and the Chinese Zodiac’s Year of the Horse.
The 2026 edition features a distinctive design by sculptural fashion designer Robert Wun — blending whisky heritage with contemporary art to embody the horse’s spirit of strength, resilience, and forward momentum.
This unique release is crafted using John Walker’s premium blended-whisky blending process where carefully selected malt and grain whiskies are matured and married to deliver depth, richness, and balance, representative of XR-21’s typical standards.
Nose: Honeyed malt, dried fruits, soft spice, and subtle oak — offering warmth and richness.
Palate: Smooth, layered, and refined; expect notes of caramel, vanilla, toasted nuts, gentle spice, and soft cocoa or chocolate undertones.
Finish: Long, warming, slightly spicy, with lingering nutty and oak-driven warmth — a signature finish that suits a celebratory dram.
