Johnnie Walker Blue Label Ghost and Rare Pittyvaich
An Exceptional Exploration of Lost Scottish Distilleries
Johnnie Walker Blue Label Ghost and Rare Pittyvaich is a remarkable limited-edition Scotch whisky that celebrates the art of blending rare and irreplaceable spirits. This expression draws its heart from Pittyvaich, a long-closed Speyside “ghost” distillery that operated for only a short period. As a result, every bottle represents a diminishing piece of Scotch whisky history, crafted for collectors and connoisseurs alike.
Rare Whiskies from Legendary Ghost Distilleries
At the core of this blend lies Pittyvaich’s distinctive Speyside character, known for its sweet orchard fruit notes and gentle autumnal depth. In addition, rare “ghost” grain whiskies from Port Dundas and Carsebridge add layers of honeycomb sweetness and soft, polished wood. These lost distilleries contribute a refined balance that elevates the entire profile.
Moreover, this blend includes exceptionally scarce single malts from a quartet of respected Speyside distilleries: Mannochmore, Auchroisk, Cragganmore, and Strathmill. To complete the composition, a rare Highland expression from Royal Lochnagar introduces structure, elegance, and subtle complexity.
Tasting Notes: Rich, Layered, and Elegant
On the nose, sweet aromas of fresh apple emerge first, followed by dark fruits and ripe berries. As the whisky opens, hints of scrubland herbs, soft vanilla, and gentle oak appear. On the palate, the experience becomes richer and more textured. Stewed orchard fruits, butterscotch, and honeyed sweetness develop smoothly, supported by a refined malt backbone. The finish is long and warming, revealing cinnamon spice and berries coated in vanilla-infused sugar, which linger gracefully.
