This bottling of a 45-year-old Littlemill single malt as an original bottling of the distillery was produced for the 250th anniversary of the distillery in collaboration with the Austrian photographer Stefan Sappert, the heavy wooden box is inspired by cameras and lenses. The equally heavy bottle was produced by Glencairn, it comes with a 5cl miniature, a booklet and a silver-on-glass photo of the River Clyde, which was produced by Stefan Sappert especially for this edition. The whisky is unpeated, was distilled in 1976, matured in ex-Oloroso sherry casks and was bottled in 250 bottles in 2022.
Littlemill was a distillery in Bowling, West Dunbartonshire, Scotland, which was founded in 1772 and was one of the oldest in Scotland. After countless changes of ownership, the distillery closed in 1992, was partially dismantled in 1996 and partially burnt down in 2004.
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.
