JOHNNIE WALKER BLUE LABEL GLENURY ROYAL 75CL : The 2019 addition to Johnnie Walker’s Ghost and Rare series focusses on the spirit and character of closed distillery Glenury Royal. Combining grain whisky from Cameronbridge distillery with rare single malts from Glen Elgin, Inchgower and Glenkinchie, Ghost and Rare balances Glenury Royal’s fruity, sweet notes of apple and apricot with dark fruits, bitter chocolate and nuts, as well as creamy toffee and butterscotch flavours from the grain whiskies.

Description

JOHNNIE WALKER BLUE LABEL GLENURY ROYAL 75CL : 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 Notes:
Nose Fresh orchard fruit (pear, peach and a hint of sharp green apple), savoury olive oil notes and cinder toffee.
Palate More sherried notes come to the fore here, with dried fruit and cinnamon sticks. Still enjoyably oily, though a floral lightness develops.
Finish Pastry, apple, black pepper. Chocolatey elements stick around.
