Johnnie Walker Blue Label Ghost And Rare Pittyvaich is the fourth release in a series of special editions crafted by John Walker & Sons, featuring rare "ghost" whiskies from distilleries that have ceased production. This exceptional blend highlights whiskies from the Pittyvaich distillery, which operated from 1974 to 1993 and was renowned for its high-quality spirits. The heart of this limited edition blend is Pittyvaich whisky, complemented by other ghost whiskies from the Port Dundas and Carsebridge distilleries. Additionally, rare single malts from four Speyside distilleries and expressions from Royal Lochnagar are included, creating a unique and exquisite whisky. Bottled in 2021 at 43.8% ABV, this 700ml masterpiece offers a rich, sweet, and fruity flavor profile. The nose reveals enticing aromas of apples, autumnal berries, cinnamon, vanilla, and crystallized ginger. On the palate, you'll experience a delightful combination of orchard fruits, soft wood, sweet berries, dark fruit, and honeycomb. The finish is a harmonious blend of fruity and spicy notes, leaving a lingering sweetness. Presented in an elegant box, this release is part of Johnnie Walker's Blue Label Ghost & Rare series, which pays homage to whiskies from closed distilleries. The Ghost & Rare Pittyvaich, composed of single malts from the Pittyvaich Distillery and other renowned distilleries like Cragganmore, Royal Lochnagar, Strathmill, Mannochmore, Auchroisk, Carsebridge, and Port Dundas, is a highly exclusive release that is a must-have for whisky collectors and enthusiasts.
