The blended whisky – unveiled at TFWA Cannes next week - includes malts aged more than 20 years old.

Graham Coull, Label 5 master blender, said: “Label 5 Gold Heritage is a personal achievement for me. Building on the traditions of Label 5, I have hand-selected whiskies from different ages and casks which marry together to produce a wonderfully balanced blend.

“The result is an exceptionally smooth whisky loaded with fruit, spice, warm vanilla oak and subtle smoke, which offers a unique taste experience,” said Coull.

Label 5 Gold Heritage will first launch in the US, followed by China and Australia retailing for $40 in 75cl format.
