Hallelujah, Amen! I wonder how many minis they're loading per flight. I thought I'd heard that only one would be loaded, but perhaps I'm wrong.

It appears at least 2. I saw 2 served on each of the occasions I saw it, and in all 3 cases they came from the same catering cart.

And it was gone for a while, now, thankfully, it's back.
So who cares?
It's not a tasting room nor a scotch class, it's not The Brandy Library. It's an airplane. And on AA this is as good as it's ever gonna get.
Springbank forever!

12 YO single malt is what was previously served. It has little to do with what is served today. Glenlivet + other distilleries have created a product for sale in duty free shops, planes and ships that is otherwise not to be found.
