The Lars Homestead is the fictional home of Luke Skywalker in the Star Wars Saga. The actual structure is sitting in the Tunisian desert, near Nefta. The original dome is long gone (Star Wars was shot there in 1976), but for the Prequels, they rebuilt the homestead in the exact same spot at the turn of the 21st century.
That building had suffered badly from the climate and in 2012, six fans from around the world, led by Mark Dermul, took it upon themselves to restore it to its full movie glory. They got the budget together thanks to the gracious donations of fans from around the world.
In 2013, in celebration of saving this iconic movie location the year before, whisky enthusiast and Star Wars fantaci Mark Dermul bottled an aptly named Save Lars Whisky, a Bruichladdich 20 Year Old from Islay. The limited edition of 100 bottles sold out in less than a week! A second fan edition has just been released.
This bottle is hand signed by the two organisers.
