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 a lightly and heavily peated single malt as well, 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 still falling silent for the final time in 1994.
The distillery buildings were then lost in a fire in 1996, bringing an end to the its tumultuous story.
This whisky was distilled on 20th December 1990 and laid to rest in single Hogshead #35 for 21 years before being bottled on 27th July 2012 by Whisky Broker.
This is the second release and it celebrates Scotland's National Bard, Robert Burns (1759-1796).
