Johnnie Walker Blue Label Ghost and Rare Glenury Royal Whisky
Johnnie Walker will add yet another limited-edition expression to their portfolio in 2019. Johnnie Walker Blue Label Ghost and Rare Glenury Royal Whisky is crafted using irreplaceable “ghost” whiskies and other incredibly rare whiskies from the reserves.
This latest addition to the Johnnie Walker Blue Label Ghost and Rare series is made using the exceptional Highland single malt Glenury Royal, from the “ghost” distillery of the same name that shut its doors in 1985.
In making this whisky, Johnnie Walker Master Blender Jim Beveridge and his team also hand-selected two exceptionally rare whiskies from the “ghost” distilleries of Cambus and Pittyvaich perfectly balancing their creamy toffee and butterscotch notes with the sumptuous orchard fruits, sweet apple and delicate apricot notes of Glenury Royal.
Five other rare whiskies from Glen Elgin, Inchgower, Glenlossie, Cameronbridge and Glenkinchie bring waves of vanilla, heather honey and dried fruits that weave through smooth dark chocolate and nutty layers to create an exploration of the Glenury Royal.
Johnnie Walker Blue Label Ghost and Rare Glenury Royal is bottled at an ABV of 43.8% and is available globally from October 2019.
