Unfortunately in the old days relatively couple of paper records were maintained and the closing date of this distillery stays unclear. Loch Lomond Distillery was commissioned by the Littlemill Distilling Company in 1965 with first distillation in 1966. In 1984, the distillery closed - or fell silent, to use the traditional term.
