Littlemill 1990 Paris - Moon Import - b. 2004 - 70cl

Littlemill 1990 Moon Import / Paris Moon Import was founded by Pepi Mongiardino in 1980 and he bottled his first whisky in 1982. Always beautifully labelled, Pepi is acclaimed for designing the packaging for Moon Import bottles himself, often using images found in old books. These iconic designs, coupled with the quality of the liquid saw Moon Import steadily grow in popularity. The company is still going strong, and their early releases are some of the brightest gems in any whisky collection. This is a 1990 vintage from the closed Lowland distillery, Littlemill and was bottled in 2004 as part of the Paris series. Littlemill was one of Scotland's oldest distilleries in its time, with distilling rumoured to have taken place there as far back as the late 18th century. It has a turbulent history of ownership changes and mothballings, as well as briefly experimenting with producing lightly and heavily peated single malts called Dunglass and Dumbuck, respectively. Barton Brands, the owners at the time, called a halt to these in 1971 however. The distillery closed again for a time in the 1980s, with its stills falling silent for the final time in 1994. The distillery buildings were then lost in a fire in 1996, bringing an end to its tumultuous story. Bottle is in a good condition Please examine all images of the lot and satisfy yourself to their condition before making a bid No shipping to US, Canada, China, Singapore, Cyprus,Israel and Russia
