After his father's death in 1819, John Walker and his mother sold the previous family farm near the Scottish town of Kilmarnock and used the proceeds to open a general store in town. After a while, the range of the shop was expanded to include whiskey. John experimentally applied blending methods used for tea at the time to whiskey. Today, Johnnie Walker is the best-selling Scotch whiskey in the world .
