Overview
This is heaven for any whisky lover who wants to taste old-school Scotch distilleries that have been closed for decades. Not only are Pittyvaich stocks from pre-1993 featured here, Johnnie Walker has also married in extremely scarce stocks from ghost distillery Carsebridge which closed in 1983 – meaning the youngest from these stocks is 38 years old!
Brimming with dark berries, honeycomb and stewed orchard fruit from Pittyvaich’s classically fruity Speyside single malt, this 1-of-1 bottling is presented at 43.8% ABV in 750ml bottles.
Johnnie Walker doesn’t get more exclusive than this.

Johnnie Walker's History
The Johnnie Walker story began back in 1805 when John Walker was born at his family’s Todriggs Farm, just near the town of Kilmarnock. His father passed away in 1819 when he was just 14 years old, and the proceeds from the subsequent sale of the farm were used to purchase a grocery store on High Street, Kilmarnock.
