✨ Tekniske specifikationer
The Johnnie Walker Blue Label Ghost & Rare Port Dundas is an exceptional blended Scotch whisky that pays homage to the 'ghost' distilleries of Scotland's past. At its heart is the creamy, sweet grain whisky from the historic Port Dundas distillery, which sat on the banks of the Forth and Clyde Canal in Glasgow from 1811 until its closure in 2010. This expression masterfully blends this rare, silent spirit with hand-selected whiskies from other closed distilleries like Cambus and Brora, alongside exceptionally rare active distilleries such as Clynelish and Cameronbridge. The result is a liquid tapestry of vanilla, soft spice, and delicate wood smoke, capturing a fleeting moment of distilling history that can never be replicated.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Johnnie Walker blev grundlagt i 1820 af John Walker som en købmandsforretning i Kilmarnock, hvor han udblendede uensartede single malts til harmonisk whisky. I dag har huset under Diageos ejerskab udviklet sig til det absolutte pejlemærke for blended skotsk whisky. Master Blender Dr. Emma Walker råder i dag over enorme modningslagre med mere end ti millioner fade fra over tredive velansete destillerier i Highland, Speyside, Lowland og Islay – herunder uerstattelige 'ghost'-partier fra for længst lukkede ikoner som Port Ellen og Brora. Med udgangspunkt i Diageos bæredygtige 'Grain-to-Glass'-filosofi for korndyrkning og destillering forvandler blenderne Skotlands mangeartede terroir til komplekse, lagdelte kompositioner, der er kendetegnet ved husets distinkte røg, moden frugtplantage, maritim salt og blød vaniljesødme. Signatur-aftapninger som den klassiske Black Label, Green Label blended malt og den eksklusive Blue Label udgør højdepunktet inden for skotsk blendingkunst i stor skala, hvor historisk håndværk forenes med nutidig videnskabelig præcision.
