Pike Creek

The Pike Creek brand was launched in the 1990s as part of Corby's Canadian whisky collection. After an initial commercial phase and a temporary discontinuation, the brand was relaunched and positioned within Corby/Pernod Ricard's premium initiatives. In recent years Pike Creek has been the subject of reissues and special releases (including long-aged expressions and distinctive finishes) as part of the range managed by Corby and produced at the Hiram Walker & Sons facility in Windsor, Ontario.

Pike Creek is positioned as a smooth, approachable Canadian whisky with an emphasis on finishing in selected casks to add aromatic complexity. The brand is managed as part of Corby's strategy to offer premium expressions and limited releases from Canada's whisky heritage.
