This single cask bottling of a 21-year-old Pittyvaich single malt was produced by independent bottler Cadenhead as part of its Closed Distilleries series. The whisky was distilled in 1985, matured in an ex-port cask and bottled in 2007 with 168 bottles produced.
Pittyvaich was a distillery in Dufftown, Banffshire, Moray, Scotland, which was founded in 1974 by Arthur Bell & Sons. It was intended to produce malt whisky for blends and was a sister company to the Dufftown distillery. In 1993, operations ceased and in 2002 the buildings were also demolished.
Scotland and Scotch whisky is a global trend, a development that has led to a flourishing whisky scene in Scotland. There is hardly a week that goes by in which there is no news about another new distillery being built or the reopening of a distillery that has been closed for a long time.
Scotland, together with Ireland, is today considered the motherland of whisky, whose roots there go back to around 1500 AD.
