Johnnie Walker Offering a Scotch from ‘Ghost’ Distillery Pittyvaich

Pittyvaich opened in 1974 and closed after only 18 years of life in 1993, But Diageo-owned Johnnie Walker reached into its reserves and is offering it as Johnnie Walker Blue Label Ghost and Rare Pittyvaich.   It’s 43.8% ABV and will be available in the UK, but not the U.S.

It’s the fourth release in the limited edition Ghost and Rare series and is a blend that includes two other “ghost” whiskies from the distilleries of Port Dundas and Carsebridge. He combined these with exceptionally rare Scotch from a quartet of Speyside distilleries including Mannochmore, Auchroisk, Cragganmore and Strathmill as well as the Highland whisky of Royal Lochnagar.  Diageo closed in NYSE trading at $193.23, up 21 cents.
