E110 Rose Fernando

This weeks guest is Rose Fernando who joins us from London England. A whisky aficionado and a former Johhnie Walker Experience Ambassador, Rose has an extensive knowledge of all things whisky.

Rose's Bio in her own words:

My name is Rose Fernando and I am a massive Johnnie Walker fan, of the blend and of the history. I first was introduced to Johnnie Walker as a rebellious teen and hated it and wondered who would ever drink it (clearly it took a little while for my palate to refine).

At the age of 28 I received my first bottle of Blue Label and had a dram of it instantly. The richness of the whisky, all its subtleties and aromas, I was a changed woman. I started learning more and more about the whisky process and learning more and more about the blend and history of Johnnie Walker.

Fast forward 3.5 years and I now have more than 200 bottles in my private collection, more than 400 newspaper and magazine prints dating from 1909 and endless branded merchandise all related to Johnnie Walker.

I was able to be on the team when Johnnie Walker Princess Street opened their doors last year but due to health reasons, I wasn't able to stay for long and soon found myself back in London.

If you have any questions about the brand, my collection or questions in general, please feel free to follow and send me a DM @roses.johnniewalker
