About this deal

The exact whiskey tumblers as seen in Bladerunner. Available from Hard To Find Whisky (worldwide delivery) > To commemorate the successful restoration of the pop culture landmark, Dermul and Dijk bought a cask of Bruichladdich 20-year-old from independent bottler A.D. Rattray and released 100 bottles of the first Save Lars Whisky. Since then, two more single cask whiskies, a 24-year-old Auchentoshan aged in an ex-Bourbon barrel and a 14-year-old Sherried Balmenach, have been released by the pair, although there are no plans for further bottlings. Then again, there were no plans for any more films a few years ago… Regardless of whether the Service offers the functionality to contribute, you are solely responsible and liable for any content and information that you create, upload, post, publish, link to, duplicate, transmit, record, display or otherwise make available on the Service or to other Members, such as chat messages, text messages, videos, audio, audio recordings, music, pictures, photographs, text and any other information or materials, whether publicly posted or privately transmitted (“Contributions”). The new expression was created by Johnnie Walker master blender Jim Beveridge with the film’s director, Denis Villeneuve, with one eye on how whiskies of the future might taste. Probably the coolest tumbler ever made, the 1974 Arnolfo di Cambio CIBI tumbler, now more commonly known as Blade Runner whisky glasses are in fact a ‘Double Old fashion glass’ by The Arnolfo di Cambio company which was founded in Tuscany, Italy in 1963 and in the course of five decades and three generations has become one of Italy’s leading glass manufacturers.

Lloyd’s tile design is quite specific and offers good features (relief variations) to obtain a nice rendering in 3D. Also, when we talk about “tiles”, it often means less work in texturing for a 3D artist. It could have been a small job if I stopped there but as an unconditional fan of the movie I wanted to have a realistic preview on walls. So, I did some architectural research on Frank Lloyd’s house in Los Angeles, watched some movie scenes over and over again and found very interesting content on propsummit.com (a free community discussing the props of the film Blade Runner). I drew some plans on paper then transferred them into 3DS Max. After showing this scene to friends Cedric Delcourt and Olivier Heninand, we immediately had the same idea: put Oculus in there!” Cini Boeri (1924) is an influential Italian product designer and architect. In 1973, she designed the Cibi Collection for Arnolfo di Cambio, a range which included this distinctive piece.

Despite feeling like its been around for a very long time, Johnie Walker's premium blend has only been around since the early 90s. 10. Johnnie Walker has appeared in many classic films, including the original Blade Runner Picture: Mike Wilkinson. Johnnie Walker is also getting in on the act as excitement starts building for Game of Thrones’ final season, which airs in 2019. The Scotch brand has unveiled White Walker, a new edition of the blended whisky also due for release this autumn. The logo features an imposing White Walker – one of the show’s undead villains – dressed to resemble Johnnie Walker’s iconic striding man. Brace yourselves… Scotch is coming.

These same glasses also make a star appearance in Guillermo del Toro’s Cabinet of Curiosities – The Viewing episode. The new Blade Runner whisky blend and bottle is the result of an official collaboration between Master Blender Jim Beveridge with Blade Runner 2049 Director Denis Villeneuve to reflect the movie’s character. “Like many fans, I remember the Johnnie Walker bottle from the first film, so it was a unique privilege to collaborate with Johnnie Walker on designing a totally original, custom bottle for the new movie. It was also a once-in-a-lifetime experience to help create the limited-edition Director’s Cut blend, which perfectly captures the complex and mysterious world of Blade Runner 2049.” says Denis Villeneuve. Follow Quentin’s blog for ongoing updates. He also has future plans to similarly create the Tyrell Corporation boardroom scene and J.F. Sebastian’s apartment in the Bradbury Building if time allows.

5. The square bottle was introduced early on in the brand's life

Johnnie Walker’s dystopian-looking, futuristicsquare bottle has become a swiftly recognisable reference to Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner, while a certain fictional Anchorman’s love for Scotch leaped out of the screen when his name was put to a blended Scotch. At first, he did this for regular customers on request but eventually, he would make regular batches for regular buyers, settling on smoother recipes which balanced out the impurities of the single malts of the time and this would go on to form the basis of the blended whisky category we know today. 3. The first brand `Old Highland Whisky’ was created in 1867 Johnnie Walker released a one-off limited edition whisky blend in a distinctive, futuristic-shaped bottle in honour of the release of the Blade Runner 2049 film. The new whisky made an appearance in the new Sci-Fi movie. In Joshi’s (Robin Wright) LAPD office in Blade Runner 2049 we find an oh-so-beautiful grey metal E63 Table Lamp (also called the Ruspa Table Lamp) designed by Umberto Riva. Single Malt Scotch Whisky such as The Glenlivet is produced at a single distillery, and is made entirely from malted barley. These exceptional Whisky brands are distilled in small batches in traditional copper pot stills, and are typically aged for many years before being bottled as a Single Malt Scotch Whisky.

This autumn, spirits giant Diageo is to release eight single malts inspired by cult TV series Game of Thrones, with each bottling named after Westeros’ seven great housesand the Night’s Watch. Whiskies will come from Lagavulin, Oban, Talisker, Cardhu, Royal Lochnagar, Dalwhinnie, Clynelish and The Singleton. The Blade Runner whisky glass is made from hand blown crystal glass by the original Italian company since 1974. These heavyweight Cibi stunning glasses command respect. Designed by Cini Boeri, made by Arnolfo di Cambio, and tried and tested (a little too frequently) by Film and Furniture. Scotland's best selling whisky, with sales of 9-litre cases topping 18m last year, has a long and illustrious history. Although the film is still beset with post-production issues, Pitlochry distillery Edradour has already released a 15-year-old bottling adorned with the film’s iconography. Aged for eight years in ex-Bourbon casks and seven years in oloroso Sherry casks, thelimited edition whisky was released in a fit of optimism in 2014, while the film was still being shot.

9. Blue Label only launched in 1992

Beveridge said: ‘I learned that film-making is much like blending – you have to constantly be committed to creating the best possible outcome. It quite simply means a whisky that has been distilled, matured and bottled in Scotland. Scotch Whisky is made in a range of styles, but they are all produced from the same three humble ingredients, grain, water, and yeast. All Scotch Whisky is matured in oak casks for at least three years, yet usually most producers age them for considerably longer.
