About this bottle

This new release from a defunct distillery was produced by mingling whisky from ten casks filled in 1989 and 1990. Originally, both American and European oak casks were used, then the final product was finished in Oloroso Sherry casks. A Lowland malt distillery, Littlemill was founded in 1772 and closed permanently in 1994. 1,500 numbered bottles come with a 50 ml sample so hoarders can save their bottle and still taste the whisky.

The Rev 4.0

So, this bottle sells for $4,000. No, that wasn't a typo. I've tried hard not to let that fact color my opinion of the whisky, which is pretty damn good on its own merits. The nose is fruity and nutty, with a bit of vanilla; the palate is a beautifully integrated fruit salad of tree fruit, melon, and stone fruit notes topped with sweet vanilla cream, milk chocolate, and rum raisin ice cream. I feel privileged to have had the chance to try it at a local tasting; it's a very good dram. Pity I'll probably never get to have it again!

Finnertys18 4.3

Nose: Raisins, a pleasant funk, mushrooms, dirt cellar, leather, tobacco. Taste: Citrus, orange, pipe tobacco.
