St. Magdalene 30 Year Old Lowland single malt Scotch whisky. 1982 vintage single cask refill butt bottled February 2013 by Douglas Laing & Co. Old & Rare Platinum Selection. Limited release of 99 numbered bottles of the lost Scotch distillery. St Magdalene (Linlithgow) St. Magdalene malt whisky distillery was established by Sebastian Henderson in Linlithgow sometime between 1753 and 1798. During the 1810s St. Magdalene Distillery was amalgamated with its near neighbour Bonnytoun Distillery. The Union Canal was constructed right on its southern doorstep during the early nineteenth century then the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway steamed right past on its northern doorstep and ensured easy access to rapidly expanding markets. St. Magdalene Distillery closed in 1983 and was later converted into private housing and is now a lost Scottish Lowland malt whisky distillery. All the whisky from St. Magdalene’s four stills went into blends during its working life, the few single cask bottlings are a modern development.
