The Blue List by Johnnie Walker: Scotch and Burger Pairings Like You’ve Never Tasted Before (original) (raw)

True icons need no introduction. But they often have a few tricks up their sleeves. The legacy of Johnnie Walker Blue Label Blended Scotch Whisky in the world of whisky is unmatched. Beyond its storied reputation, it’s the liquid itself—an elusive dance of smoky and sweet, floral and honeyed, nutty and spicy notes—that rewards exploration. The seamless union of hand-selected Scotch whiskies with only one in 10,000 casks making the cut, Johnnie Walker Blue Label is everywhere true character is appreciated. As bold as it is approachable, a pour of Blue Label is its own celebration.

And so, Bon Appétit and Johnnie Walker Blue Label have brought together longtime friends and collaborators, actor Ebon Moss-Bachrach and chef and executive culinary producer Courtney Storer, to create three cocktail and food pairings that complement—and even include—the iconic Blue Label.

First up on the menu? An elevated twist on the classic Rob Roy gets paired with a delicious one-bite steak frites. Next, a reimagined Whiskey Sour is matched with a burger topped with onions caramelized in Johnnie Walker Blue Label. Finally, a flavorful Frozen Scottish Coffee is married with a quintessential Chicago hot dog that gets a smashburger treatment—think nostalgic burger-and-a-milkshake vibes.

And when you’re ready to hit the town and raise a glass, dive into inventive culinary experiences in your own city with The Blue List.
