Johnnie Walker Blue Ghost Port Ellen Edition Blended Whisky - 70cl 43.8%
Description
The lost distillery of Port Ellen is to be celebrated in the second edition of Johnnie Walker Blue Label’s Ghost and Rare series.
Johnnie Walker Blue Label Ghost and Rare Port Ellen has been bottled without an age statement at 43.8% abv.
The whisky is presented in an individually-numbered bottle displaying a map of Scotland, showing each of the distilleries used in the blend.
The expression is the second in the series, which focuses on the characteristics of lost distilleries in the Diageo portfolio.
The first Ghost & Rare, launched in December 2017, was built around the whisky produced at Highland distillery Brora which – just like Port Ellen is set to reopen in 2020.
‘These whiskies deliver a fascinating glimpse into another world, exploring the unique character of whiskies from a small number of iconic, closed distilleries,’ Beveridge said.
‘It’s really interesting to be able to put a spotlight on the character of these whiskies.’
Tasting Notes
Nose: Fruity with fragrant smokiness – delicate and refined rather. Fresh and baked apples are joined by pears and waxed jackets. Vanilla cream notes develop.
Palate: The apples are back and sat on a bed of damp leaves. Sweet floral notes float above – hints of lavender and Parma violet – and oaky spice sits underneath.
Finish: Long and ashy, with fruity notes slowly fading.
