If you enjoy Johnnie Walker whisky, you might also be interested in our full Scotch whisky selection, which includes Highland whisky, Islay whisky, and Campbeltown whisky. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Other ‘ghost’ whiskies from Cambus and Brora distilleries are balanced with exceptional rare Single Malts. Included within is grain whisky from Glasgow's Port Dundas distillery (which closed back in 2010), matured in second-fill and heavily charred first-fill American oak casks. Other rare whiskies in the blend include Glen Elgin, Inchgower Glenlossie, Pittyvaich and Glenkinchie, these add waves of vanilla, heather honey and dried fruits that intertwine with smooth dark chocolate and nutty layers to create a perfectly balanced experience of this irreplaceable 'ghost' whisky.

This limited edition has been carefully crafted by Master Blender Jim Beveridge and his small team of passionate blenders using eight handpicked whiskies from the four corners of Scotland, including three irreplaceable ‘ghost whiskies’ an. 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.At the heart of this blend is a wonderful single malt from the Glenury Royal distillery that closed in 1985, culminating in a sweet finish with gentle spices to this perfectly balanced Scotch. Known amongst blended whisky lovers as one of the top premium Scotch blends, Johnnie Walker is a brand which needs little introduction. Whether you are looking for Johnnie Walker blue label, black label, or red label, we have the selection for you. At the heart of this blend lies whisky from the Highland "ghost" distillery of Glenury Royal, a hidden treasure of the whisky world, which closed its doors in 1985.

This beverage has a distinctive flavour, which is often described as rich, dark, and almost creamy — a great whisky for connoisseurs.

Johnnie Walker Blue Label Ghost and Rare Pittyvaich has an exceptional single malt from the 'ghost' distillery of Pittyvaich at its heart. The first batch has been built around single malt whisky from Brora, which closed in 1983, but which will reopen by 2020. The result is a whisky with smooth, nutty layers of dark chocolate, waves of vanilla, heather honey and dried fruits and underlying notes of creamy toffee and butterscotch - all perfectly balanced by the rich, fruity, sweet apple and delicate apricot character of Glenury Royal.

Whisky from that distillery is at the heart of this limited edition blend, along with another seven rare whiskies.Content on this site is not intended to substitute for advice given by medical practitioner, pharmacist, or other licensed health-care professional. Notes of sumptuous orchard fruits, sweet apple and delicate apricot notes beautifully heightened by creamy toffee and butterscotch. Jim Beveridge used malts from Pittyvaich, Glen Elgin, Inchgower, Glenlossie, and Glenkinchie, as well as grains from Cambus and Cameronbridge to build out the expression. Each release offer a fleeting opportunity to savour the depth of character of whiskies from 'ghost' distilleries that have long since closed, but whose spirit still lives on in the precious liquid captured in every bottle. Johnnie Walker has over 10 million casks of maturing single malt and grain whiskies from the four corners of Scotland.

The distillery was destroyed by a fire just a few weeks after opening, but later became one of only three Scottish distilleries to hold a royal title. In the past 23 years there has only been eight official bottlings of Glenury Royal – making this limited edition release a rare chance to experience the rare flavour of this legendary whisky. Whiskies from two other "ghost" distilleries, Cambus and Brora are also included, alongside a host of five exceptionally rare single malts selected from the high-quality Johnnie Walker Blue Label reserves.Alexander, with his son Alexander Walker II, firmly established the business and began marketing Walker’s Old Highland - a blended Scotch whisky - in 1865. Inspired by the enigmatic and alluring umami flavour profile, they've masterfully handpicked whiskies, fusing salty, smoky, and savoury notes to achieve the perfect umami experience.
