The whisky was distilled in 2000, matured in an ex-bourbon hogshead, and was bottled in 2025 in a run of 223 individually numbered bottles.
Dumbarton was a distillery in Dumbarton, West Dunbartonshire, Scotland, which was founded in 1938 by Hiram Walker & Sons for the production of grain whisky. It closed in 2002 and the buildings were demolished in 2005.
