Description
A 24 year old Littlemill whisky. Bottled by Jack Wiebers, as part of their Fighting Fish series. Distilled in 1990, it was then aged in a bourbon cask and bottled in 2014. A run of just 172 bottles. Littlemill distillery was closed in 1994, dismantled in 1997 and destroyed by fire in 2004.
Colour: Bright amber.
Nose: Sweet molasses, honeyed sweetness, red berries and hints of tropical fruits fills the nose before light vanilla comes into the picture. Spice lingers in the background.
Taste: The oily mouthfeel gives robustness to the palate before sweet vanilla engulfs the palate. Molasses and tropical fruits rush in after the vanilla dissipates. Warm spice hangs in the background.
Finish: The medium to long finish of this dram is pleasurable with light spice lingering at the back of the throat. Sweet molasses and creamy vanilla last all the way to the end, marking this dram as a superb balanced one!.
As with all our older bottles, there may be some slight damage to the labels / box. Please see the pictures.
