About the Producer Finn’s 6x great-grandfather James Thomson, born in 1713, was farming by day and, as dusk falls, distilling a secret that will one day become his family’s legacy: aqua vitae, the water of life. Read the rest of the great family history on the Finn Thomson website Representing the ninth generation, Finn Thomson is a young man who has inherited his family’s 300-year-old passion for whisky.

Fuelled by the natural instinct for creativity and entrepreneurship that has pulsed through Thomson veins for centuries, Finn is now embarking on his biggest adventure yet. With a reverence for those who have walked before him, Finn Thomson is bringing new life to the family business. The story continues for the next generations.
