TLDC was established in 2011, creating the first new whisky distillery in London since Lea Valley Distillery closed in 1903.
The original Battersea-based operation gained recognition for combining traditional production methods with contemporary approaches before closing in 2019.
Following the company’s revival in 2025, TLDC has spent the past year re-establishing its presence in London’s whisky landscape.

“It honours one of our earliest casks, capturing the original spirit that began our journey. This release is a tangible piece of London’s whisky history, surviving the distillery’s closure in 2019 and now emerging as a symbol of our return.”
McKay added: “This is a whisky born of our past, shaped by our revival, and confidently demonstrating our bold, bright future.”

As one of the earliest casks laid down by the distillery, barrel #007 has witnessed the growth of England’s whisky sector over the past decade.
