At a recent high energy launch party at Sydney’s Chin Chin guests were introduced to a new classic Spritz, Johnnie Walker Black Ruby Blackberry & Soda. The launch featured a live set from rising pop artist Charley, DJ performances by Mowgli May and Yes Boone, and an immersive Black Ruby bar.
The party was to announce Johnnie Walker as Official Whisky Partner of SXSW Sydney 2025 and presenter of the SXSW Sydney Music Festival. Another announcement was the Walk to Austin Award, giving one emerging Australian artist a guaranteed slot at SXSW Austin 2026.
Keep an eye out for further announcements of SXSW Sydney and look out for the new Spritz exclusively at Dan Murphy’s and BWS. The Spritz features notes of blackberry and elderflower, perfectly complemented by Johnnie Walker Black Ruby whisky and topped with soda. Light, vibrant and perfectly balanced between sweet and tart, it’s made for drinkers who want something refreshing with a little edge. It’s a twist on the classic Tom Collins cocktail.
