Majestic's Distillery

Majestic's distillery in now closed after main years of producing fine rye whiskies. The base for this distillery was in Lansdowne and closed its door to making new whiskies in 1972.

In fact they just stopped making whisky, but kept the barrels to mature till well into the 1980's when they were ready to consume. In 1982 Heaven Hill Distilleries purchased the brand name of Pikesville - the primary brand of the Majestic's distillery.

With this purchase the Pikesville name is still around and great thanks has to go to Heaven Hill for keeping this whisky alive. It made Heaven Hill stronger in the American market place, but better having this whisky still with us than being a whisky for the past.
