Located at Bowling, between Glasgow and Dumbarton, a light whisky with subtle sweetness.
Littlemill Distillery was established in 1772 to the west of Bowling by the north shore of the River Clyde and on the main road into Glasgow. Subsequent modifications during the 1930s resulted in a number of novel features including double ventilation towers which sat over a single drying kiln and pot stills with rectifiers rather than the traditional swan necks. The combination of pot and column stills in Littlemill Distillery was designed to produce malt whisky which was expected to mature quickly. At the time of closure in 1994 Littlemill Distillery was the oldest working malt whisky distillery in Scotland. Demolished in 2006 and now Littlemill is a lost Scottish distillery although the shell of the manager’s house remains.
The nose has a prominent floral note, touches of freshly cut grass and straw. A strong sweetness on the palate with mild spicy influences and a touch of perfume. A leafy, pleasant finish.
