Blue Label Ghost and Rare is a limited edition whisky that offers a unique and complex flavor profile. This whisky is a blend of various “ghost” whiskies from distilleries such as Cambus and Brora, which are no longer in operation. These whiskies bring a creamy and woody character to the blend, adding depth and richness.
The vanilla and soft smoke notes from the ghost whiskies are beautifully embraced by the other rare whiskies in the blend. One of these rare whiskies is Cameronbridge, which adds spiced apple notes to the mix. This gives the whisky a subtle sweetness and a touch of warmth.
Glenkinchie, another rare whisky included in the blend, contributes to the overall flavor profile with its aromas of peaches and dark berries. These fruity notes add a layer of complexity and enhance the overall sensory experience.
Other whiskies like Clynelish, Dailuaine, and Auchroisk also play a part in creating the Blue Label Ghost and Rare. These whiskies bring their own unique characteristics to the blend, adding further depth and complexity.
