Alexander Johnson, managing director of Johnson Reserve
Alexander Johnson, managing director of Johnson Reserve, believes that the new approach to aging is the key to creating a truly unique and exciting whisky. “A lot of distilleries don’t look towards innovation, because they have very established customers, and they’ve actually become quite lazy in the process,” he says. “To a lot of producers, an 18-year-old single malt justifies a certain price, even if you’re getting a real repetition of flavors. You buy a 40-year-old expression to have something really complex, well evolved, and different. But in some cases, you’re heavily disappointed.”
Rob Yeatman, head of brand advocacy for Johnson Reserve
Rob Yeatman, head of brand advocacy for Johnson Reserve, agrees. “We are dedicated to advancing whisky maturation with a focus on flavor rather than age,” he says. “If you just take a spirit and you age it in a single cask, or even just a couple of different casks for extended periods of time, you’re very much getting diminishing returns—in terms of additions of flavor and aroma—after a surprisingly short period. But when you take a high-quality spirit that already has a good level of maturity, and elevate it through this series of very carefully chosen casks—each one individually selected for the different profiles that it will impart to that final spirit—you have complete artistic control to create something completely unique. It’s worlds apart from the spirit you started out with.”
The Renoir Edition is just one example of Johnson Reserve’s commitment to innovation and quality. With their unique approach to aging and their dedication to using only the finest ingredients, they are a brand that is sure to impress even the most discerning whisky enthusiasts. So, if you’re looking for a whisky that is truly unique and exciting, look no further than Johnson Reserve.
