Another bottle of liquid history lands. Blended and marketed by the now dissolved firm of RH Thomson & Co (Distillers) Ltd, which was founded in Leith in 1938, Thomsons went on to become part of the Distillers Company Ltd (DCL), the forerunner of Diageo. Beautifully presented but long discontinued, what we have here is something special indeed! The bottle is in very good condition considering it was likely purchased in the 1970s. We know that because the metric volume standard was introduced in 1980. Prior to that the standard was set as 26 2/3 fluid ounces (or near to. That was the average size of the traditional bottles produced by glass blowers in the 17th century).
