Landevejscykling
John Walker (1805–1857) was a grocer in Kilmarnock who originated what would become one of the world's most famous whisky brands in the world.
When his father Alexander died in 1820, John was left £417 in trust. In 1820 the trustees invested in an Italian warehouse, grocery, and wine and spirits shop on King Street in Kilmarnock.
An 1852 flood destroyed virtually all of the stock Walker held, but the business recovered within a couple of years. His own whisky brand, then known as "Walker's Kilmarnock Whisky" was popular locally.
