Johnnie Walker Blue Label Ghost and Rare Glenury Royal
¥2,500.00
This third release in Johnnie Walker’s Blue Label Ghost & Rare series shines a light on the long-closed Glenury Royal Distillery. 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.
Description
The 2019 addition to Johnnie Walker’s Ghost and Rare series focusses on the spirit and character of closed distillery Glenury Royal.
This third release in Johnnie Walker’s Blue Label Ghost & Rare series shines a light on the long-closed Glenury Royal Distillery. 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. Alongside Glenury Royal’s single malt, master blender Dr. 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.
Tasting Note
Nose: Salted butter, marmalade on toast, elegant peat smoke and oat cakes.
Palate: Perfumed malt and orange blossom, balanced by salty sea air and coal dust. Subtle clove brings heat.
Finish: Continued peat smoke sticks around for a good long while of the finish.
