Johnnie Walker Blue Label Ghost & Rare Pittyvaich is a blended Scotch whisky. It is part of the Blue Label Ghost & Rare series, which features whiskies from closed distilleries.
The blend is built around single malts from the Pittyvaich Distillery, which was open only from 1974 to 1993. It also contains aged grain whiskies.
The nose is waxy, with dried fruit, apricots, raisins, dark chocolate, marzipan, orange blossom, stone fruit and citrus. The palate is peppery and spicy, with black and Szechuan pepper, vanilla, toffee, honey, and stone and orchard fruit. The finish is sweet, with fudge and peaches and cream.
