Marking the Last Eighteen Months with Our Limited Edition Lockdown Lock-in Dram Blended Malt Scotch Whisky

let’s begin

IWSC Award winning dram, with 90 points earning the silver award.

We are so proud of this releases, not just because of the awards its accumulating but because of the sentiment and meaning to us. We all spent the last 18 months with extra worries, stresses and possible health issues because of Covid. Greg and I talked many times about how we needed to document this time, writing blogs and journals but then we thought about how it impacted our business too and that’s where the idea came from. We’ve had the nicest feedback from people while bought this one, from one lady who bought it for their friend who worked in the NHS to another who bought it to drink at family reunions. Keep the stories coming!

To mark what we hope is the successful emergence through this tumultuous time in human history, we released a special blended malt called, rather boldly, “The Lockdown Lock-in Dram” with only 500 bottles ever produced.

As featured in Mail+, this whisky, with its luscious notes of vanilla and honey is a smooth, easy-drinking blended malt whisky created to raise a glass to one another as we move through this challenging time and look forward to brighter times.

As featured in:

A limited-edition blend of malt whiskies matured in bourbon casks, this offering from Cheshire-based independent whisky bottlers and blenders Greg and Kirsty Dillon, leaves a far sweeter taste in the mouth than the year it was created to commemorate. Easy-drinking with notes of vanilla and honey. Read here.

Who, at the beginning of this decade, would have thought that whisky tastings would go virtual (and work really well!), that we would have no summer programme of events to see and pour our whisky for our awesome customers at. This whisky, with its luscious notes of vanilla and honey is a smooth, easy-drinking blended malt whisky created to raise a glass to one another as we move through this challenging time and look forward to brighter times.
