The fifth release of Johnnie Walker’s Ghost and Rare series, a series of limited editions that reflect the style of the whiskies of the early 19th century. Port Dundas which closed its doors in 2010 has been revitalised in this ghost series and the spirit of this dwindling stock has been maturing through this release.

Johnnie Walker Blue Label is celebrating the release of Johnnie Walker Blue Label Ghost and Rare Port Dundas, the fifth release in its special edition series. Others in the series included Johnnie Walker Blue Label Ghost and Rare Pittyvaich (2021), Johnnie Walker Blue Label Ghost and Rare Glenury Royal (2019), Johnnie Walker Blue Label Ghost and Rare Port Ellen (2018), and Johnnie Walker Blue Label Ghost and Rare Brora (2017). Its predecessors in this series certainly made their mark in the world of spirits – we’re referring to those in the liquid form here, rather than intangible spectres – as its most recent release clinched gold both at the International Spirits Challenge 2021 and at the International Wine and Spirits Competition in 2022.

The Johnnie Walker Blue Label Ghost and Rare series explore the character of exceptional and rare whiskies from one of the world’s most famous Grain Whisky distilleries, the Glasgow ‘ghost’ distillery of Port Dundas. Ghost distilleries are those that have been closed for decades, and thus the scotch from these locations are highly sought after.

For this new limited edition where each bottle is individually numbered, Johnnie Walker Master Blender Dr. Emma Walker (of no relation to the founder) led a team to select the most distinctive expressions of maturing whisky from Port Dundas. This small team of expert blenders handpick the rarest whiskies from across the four corners of Scotland, including some irreplaceable whiskies. This also marks the first Johnnie Walker Blue Label Ghost and Rare release from Dr. Walker, who has worked in the Johnnie Walker team for more than a decade and who took on the prestigious role of Johnnie Walker Master Blender last year.

“Port Dundas was one of the finest grain whisky distilleries in the world,” Dr. Walker says. “The rare expressions that we have chosen from our reserves are some of the most distinctive it has ever produced. Their slow maturation allows the delicate grain character to blossom.”
