Russian police have raided an illegal 'Johnnie Walker' bottling plant near Moscow.
Russian police have uncovered a factory bottling counterfeit Johnnie Walker.
The Scotch Whisky Association, as our sister title The Herald revealed earlier this year, is worried about a swathe of new Russian brands which look designed to be passed off as Scottish. Tatyana Petrova, who heads the Interior Ministry’s press office for the area, said the factory was bottling but not distilling spirits.
Johnnie Walker is owned by Diageo. The spirits giant stopped exporting to Russia last year and has wound down its presence in the country. It used to bottle some of its brands near Moscow.However, Russian distributors have started buying Johnnie Walker from other nations through a mechanism called “parallel imports”, as our sister title The Herald reported in February.
