Curators of the World’s Most
Remarkable Spirits

The Last Drop Distillers exists to curate the world’s most remarkable spirits – exceptional whiskies, cognacs, and other rare discoveries from across the globe. Founded in 2008 by industry pioneers James Espey and Tom Jago, The Last Drop was born from a singular belief: that some of the world’s finest spirits are not created, but uncovered – forgotten casks, resting quietly in remote corners, patiently waiting to be rediscovered.

With fewer than 40 rare releases in its history, The Last Drop is deliberately rare. Each bottling is either an extraordinary spirit found and revived, or a singular creation blended by a member of The Assembly – a panel of the world’s most renowned experts in the spirits industry. The result is always the same: something unique, unrepeatable, and deeply memorable.

No two releases are alike, and each one tells a story – of time, provenance, craftsmanship, and the fleeting nature of perfection. Every detail is considered, from the liquid inside to the hand-finished presentation and accompanying miniature, allowing collectors to taste without breaking the seal.

At Hampton Court Concours of Elegance 2025, The Last Drop will host private tastings within the Members & Owners Enclosure – an intimate opportunity to sample some of the rarest spirits ever released. Like the finest classic cars gracing the lawns of Hampton Court, these bottlings embody craftsmanship, beauty, and legacy – captured in a moment, and never to be repeated.
