[Read this article in 🇬🇧👇] „Nejlepší způsob, jak pít whisky, je ten váš. Zapomeňte na pravidla.“ Whisky podle @timdphilips, ambassadora slavné značky whisky @johnniewalker není o tom, jak ji „musíte“ pít, ale jak vám chutná. V rozhovoru prozrazuje, proč se nebojí experimentů, které koktejly lidé nejčastěji kazí, i to, proč budoucnost whisky neleží v tradici, ale ve zvědavosti. Celý rozhovor i podcast najdete na 👉 www.visitchef.com. 🇬🇧 "The Best Way to Drink Whisky Is Your Way. Forget the rules." According to @timdphilips, Global Brand Ambassador for @johnniewalker, whisky isn't about how you're supposed to drink it—it's about how you enjoy it. In this interview, he explains why experimentation beats tradition, reveals the classic whisky cocktails people get wrong most often, and shares why the future of whisky belongs to curiosity, not convention.

I wouldn’t be a narcissist global ambassador if I didn’t recieve the professional photos from a recent global event like @worldclassin, scanned and saved those which made me look good, then lead this social media story with my best image. Then to justify that vanity, reflect on a few days in Delhi, spent being in the presence of the some of the best people in our industry, enjoying the best cocktails in the country, whilst celebrarting the win of India’s latest national champion; @karant_account (who’s image should have probably been the first in this post..) What a week, what a champion. #WorldClassIndia #KeepWalking taken in Delhi, India by @timdphilips

🔔🥃 RARE AUCTION LOT LIVE 🥃🔔 We are delighted to share that an auction lot of, not one, but TWO rare signed items is currently live on @whisky.auction, and available for bids! This incredibly lot (perfect for a whisky collector or a incredibly unique festive gift) includes: 🌟 A bottle of Johnnie Walker Blue Label Year Of The Snake 2025, signed by the Master Blender Emma Walker. This is bottle number 004590. 🌟A Limited Edition, Signed, Year of the Dragon Print by world-famous artist, James Jean. The auction ends 16th December 2025, with all proceeds going towards Equal Measures UK. 🔗 Auction link in bio 🔗 🙏🏽 This lot was kindly donated by @johnniewalker to raise funds to support marginalised people working in the drinks industry. 🍾 THE BOTTLE Housed in a stunning bottle designed in collaboration with influential visual artist, James Jean, this special edition Johnnie Walker Blue Label provides a vibrant, yet smooth drinking experience mirroring the irridescence of the planet’s most gorgeous reptiles. Expect notes of fruit, spice and smokiness. 🎨THE ARTWORK James Jean is a world-renowned and celebrated contemporary artist and bold cultural pioneer. His hyper-stylized aesthetic floats between dream like fantasies with emotional undertones, he imbues his worlds with multiple references — from traditional Chinese scroll paintings to more modern movements, such as anime and comics. Just as maturing whiskies blossom into life after careful aging in wooden casks, in 2024 the Year of the Wood Dragon helps good fortunes flourish. Re-imagined by James Jean, the evergreen Wood Dragon springs from bountiful flora and fauna, and bursts to life with auspicious ambition. His artwork of the mythical dragon, interwoven and layered with botanical elements, echoes the visceral flavour experience of this exceptional Scotch. #whisky #whiskyauction #rarewhisky #collectible #auction by @timdphilips

Introducing @timdphilips , Global Brand Ambassador at @johnniewalker , @diageo and our incredible #IndustryInspiration !🥃 Tim has had a successful career so far, spending 20 years working in a variety of bars around the world including Milk & Honey London, The Clubhouse Chamonix, Black Pearl Melbourne, Bulletin Place Sydney and Dead Ringer. These experiences have led to his current role at Johnnie Walker. Delving into his role, Tim explained, “As Global Ambassador I travel the world highlighting the work of the brilliant creatives that are showcasing out liquids in new and innovative ways, in the best bars in the world. I get the chance to learn from our global marketing team, our talented blenders, as well as the troupe of Johnnie Walker ambassadors around the world. It’s a dream job.” Speaking on his love for the brand, Tim said, “As storied as the brand’s history is, I’m more focused on where it’s going. ‘Keep Walking’ lies at the heart of our ethos, and that spirit of progress seeps into every avenue of the brands work. I get excited about the innovative liquids that allow new audiences and new occasions to connect with the world of Scotch.” Looking to the future, Tim shared his goals, “Live a long, healthy, giving life. Appreciate every opportunity and show love to others. I have no other goal in life other than to enjoy it for a long time to come.” To conclude, Tim advised, “Don’t represent any brand and that doesn’t represent your values. The key to being a successful brand ambassador is highlighting other’s work and ensuring your brand is supporting your bartending community.” by @timdphilips

From early on in my bartending days I always knew scotch would be my favoured spirit. That decision was owing mostly to the vast depth and variation of flavour that could be achieved with so few ingredients. I fell in love with the complexity, whilst in parallel admiring its heritage and global admiration. I pinch myself when I say that I now have a career in Scotch and get paid to talk about it daily. Though, my role in Johnnie Walker rarely requires me to touch on the categories' heritage, instead and in the spirit of 'Keep Walking' at Johnnie Walker we look to push things forward in Scotch and wax lyrical about what's next. Occasionally though, it's nice to reflect on the heritage of whisky. The Keepers of the Quaich are a society thats intention is to uphold the heritage of the worlds best spirit, whilst celebrating those that have dedicated their lives to its continued popularity. It's with great privilege myself and Linn were invited to Scotland a few weeks ago to attend the Keepers of the Quaich Autumn banquet, whilst I was proudly inducted into this society. What a night, what an honour, what a crazy privilege to be amongst such esteemed company. I'm so grateful and humbled. Lastly, shout out to @linnmarialovisa, my beautiful wife, for supporting me in this crazy job. #KeepWalking #KOTQ #JohnnieWalker by @timdphilips

Two years ago I was due to come to Iceland to judge their World Class finals. The pending birth of Majlis, our second daughter was ultimately the reason I had to sadly pull out of visiting. Two years later, I finally got the chance to spend a few days in Reykjavik, enjoying the sunshine, early morning runs along the coast, and most importantly the incredible hospitality from some of the most creative bartenders in the world. What a place, what a few days. Thanks to my hosts @logisonurjons , @ohsoleymio and @jakobeggerts for their sense of generosity and humour. Congratulations to @leo_snaefeld on earning the right to represent Iceland at the Global Finals in Toronto later this year. Sorry I sprayed prosecco all over your clothes, too. Can’t wait to come back. taken in Reykjavík, Iceland by @timdphilips
