Meet Angel Chen, Fashion Innovator
Shanghai-based fashion trailblazer, Angel Chen, brings her unique touch to the Blue Label Lunar New Year Limited Edition bottle. After studying at Central St Martins in London, she made waves in the fashion world, appearing on Netflix's Next in Fashion. Inspired by the intricate craftsmanship that goes into the Johnnie Walker Blue Label (a blend made from some of the rarest whiskies sourced from closed 'ghost' distilleries in Scotland), Angel's work echoes the depth and complexity found in each bottle.
The Enchanting Rabbit Design
With the rabbit representing mercy, elegance, beauty, and longevity, Chen's artwork features bounding rabbits upon mountainous peaks, symbolizing the movement forward and the spreading of goodness to come. Her work often draws from different generations, genders, and cultures coming together to create something fresh and new, resonating with the spirit of Johnnie Walker.

Whether you're gifting it to a friend or enjoying it at a dinner party, this exquisite drink is the perfect companion for your Chinese New Year celebrations.
