Information
Scotland, Lowlands. Distillery closed. Owner: Loch Lomond Group
Closed in 1994 and ravaged by fire in 2004, Littlemill's most prosperous years - compared to the period that followed - ran until the end of the 1990s.Despite the evident young age of the classic versions released by the distillery, ranging from 5 to 8 years, some vintages interspersed the 80s and 90s, including a 1964 and a 1975 vintage presented in a stocky, green bottle (1990s). These were accompanied by two very rare 30 year old versions released at the very start of the 1980s (distilled in the early 50s), including one limited to 87 decanters worldwide produced for the Italian importer F&G Bruino, with an ABV of 38.5%.
A Littlemill single cask distilled in 1989, matured in a bourbon cask and bottled in 2010. This bottling was imported by The Stillman’’s, a Swiss independent bottler founded in 2004 by Angela and Daniel Kissling, whisky and spirits importers in the Fribourg canton. This whisky’’s nose is rich, creamy and vegetal but above all very fruity, which is typical of Littlemill. The palate reveals abundant yellow fruits, alongside a certain minerality and a handful of spices. A few refreshing notes of mint are more discreet. The finish is long, intense and fruity, with the same hint of rather lovely freshness. A limited edition of 204 bottles.
