About this Little Brown Dog release

Winter is here and Andrew and Chris wanted some sherry bomb whisky in our lives. Although Andrew has now lived in Aberdeenshire for nearly 20 years, Glasgow still feels like his home city. The label is a tribute to the greatest ever music venue, the Barrowland Ballroom. As far as Little Brown Dog would push a sherry bomb, this is big bold whisky and suits the style of spirit.

Meet The Founders

Dr Andrew Smith and Chris Reid

Little Brown Dog Spirits was founded by Dr Andrew Smith and Chris Reid. They run an independent bottler and micro-distillery based in rural Aberdeenshire, Scotland.

They take their name from Andrew’s beloved dog, whose nickname was the little brown dog. She followed him everywhere on all his distillery visits and was his constant companion. She passed away in 2022 aged 15 but lives on in spirit. Two more little brown dogs, Winnie and Peedie joined the team in 2020 and 2023.

Chris and Andrew started Little Brown Dog in 2018. Based on Chris’s farm they combine a passion for their surrounding area with in-depth knowledge (read intense geekery!) of distilling and cask maturation.
