Johnnie Walker Red Label is an 80 proof (40% ABV) blend of grain and malt whiskies.
40.0% Alc/Vol
It's actually 43% Alc/Vol my fiance has a bottle in his collection 1 of the 1st 8000 produced!! :D
It's because whiskies generally are at the 40% ABV level, and Johnnie Walker is no exception (it' a blend of scotch whiskies from different distilleries in Scotland).

Johnnie Walker "white label", is actually really called "Old Highland Whiskey" and was dropped from the Johnnie Walker lineup during World War I. Extremely rare and extremely valuable.

black label is considered better because it's an older versionthe red label is not that smooth
Many liquor companies make black label products. The most well known is Johnnie Walker whiskey.
On the label
Royal Lochnagar is part of the blend. Also: Cardhu Benrinnes Caol Ila
Johnnie Walker White Label was discontinued during World War I - around 1909. So it's an extremely old Whisky but was made at a relatively cheap price. I recently got one from a friend of mine who picked it up from a Duty Free shop at an airport.
The imitation is more marked by something other than the plastic cap of the bottle; the label on the neck should be embossed. Johnnie Walker black label is the most popularly counterfeited liquor.
no Premium whiskey from JW starts at black label, then green label, then gold label, and FINALLY, the holiest of holy: blue label. I personally like the green label the best, for its intensity. If you want the smoothest Johnny Walker, then get the black. You won't be disappointed!
Most beers typically have 2-6% alcohol content but I'm sure you can find the specific alcohol content on the label of your chosen bottle.
Johnnie Walker Blue Label Blended Whisky is the top of the Johnnie Walker line: Blue, Gold, Green, Black, and Red. At about $150 USD per bottle (duty free) this is an investment in some good whiskey and many wonder if it is worth that price for a blend. Many whiskey/whiskey consumers will dish out more for single malt, but why is this blended whiskey so popular and so expensive? In the end, I argue it is worth having around for special occasions
