Product Information

Content on this site is not intended to substitute for advice given by medical practitioner, pharmacist, or other licensed health-care professional. The Glenury Royal distillery was closed in 1983, so those particular casks at the heart of this Johnnie Walker Blue Label Ghost and Rare edition must have been at least 35 years old. Inspired by the Highlands and the TV show "Outlander," the whisky boasts notes of vanilla, butterscotch, and oak spice. Exceptionally balanced with layers of creamy vanilla sweetness on the nose, rolling waves of waxy citrus, rich malt and tropical fruit flavours on the palate, and the unmistakable lingering finish of Port Ellen maritime smokiness.

Johnnie Walker Blue Label Ghost and Rare Pittyvaich was released in 2021 as part of the continuing Ghost and Rare series celebrating the rare and lost distilleries that contribute to the Johnnie Walker brand's globe-bestriding success.This beverage has a distinctive flavour, which is often described as rich, dark, and almost creamy — a great whisky for connoisseurs. As with the previous bottlings (which focussed on Brora and Port Ellen), the rare whisky from this lost distillery sits at the core of the blend. Made with a variety of extremely well-aged malts, the overriding flavour is one of toffee and barley, with hints of peat smoke adding lovely complexity. Glenury Royal gives this whisky notes of sumptuous orchard fruits, sweet apple and delicate apricot. Whisky offers a unique, world-class blend of Scottish Lowland single malts with a natural cask strength of 50.
