- Description
- Littlemill's 31-year maturation in refill oak represents one of Lowland distilling's lost traditions, now preserved by Gordon & MacPhail's Connoisseurs Choice. The nose reveals key lime pie, apple strudel, and hay; the palate develops spearmint, charred oak, and white pepper in a measured progression. At 44.5%, this restrained strength lets the whisky's age-driven complexity emerge without harsh alcohol. Essential for collectors of defunct Scottish distilleries.
