In life and in whisky-making, water is our most valuable resource. We’re going to use 20% less water during our production process – while maintaining our whisky’s exceptional quality.

LIGHTER WEIGHT. LESS PACKAGING. BETTER FOR EVERYONE.

Lighter bottles = smaller footprint. We’re making our glass bottles up to 25% lighter, except for Red Label and Black Label because they’re already very light.

Across Diageo, we have removed over 141 million cardboard gift boxes per year across our premium Scotch portfolio, including Johnnie Walker Red and Black Label.
