Description

Johnnie Walker Blue Label Ghost and Rare Brora is the first release in the limited edition Ghost & Rare series, crafted by Master Blender Dr. Jim Beveridge. This blended Scotch whisky features rare whiskies from "ghost" distilleries that are no longer operational, with the legendary Brora Highland Single Malt at its heart. It also includes whiskies from the silent distilleries of Pittyvaich and Cambus, alongside five active distilleries: Clynelish, Royal Lochnagar, Glenkinchie, Glenlossie, and Cameronbridge. Bottled at 46% ABV, this expression is known for its rich, velvety smooth character with a light peatiness and subtle sweetness.
