An official bottling from the now silent Lowland distillery on the banks of the Clyde at Bowling.
Littlemill was one of Scotland's oldest distilleries in its time, with distilling rumoured to have taken place there as far back as the late 18th century.
It has a turbulent history of ownership changes and mothballings, as well as briefly experimenting with producing a lightly and heavily peated single malt as well, called Dunglass and Dumbuck, respectively.
Barton Brands, the owners at the time, called a halt to these in 1971 however. The distillery closed again for a time in the 1980s, with its still falling silent for the final time in 1994.
The distillery buildings were then lost in a fire in 1996, bringing an end to the its tumultuous story.
This is an official release from the lost distillery aged for 12 years.
