BRUICHLADDICH 10YR 2ND EDITION 50% 700ML ISLAY SINGLE MALT SCOTCH WHISKY

Bruichladdich 10 Year Old 2nd Edition Like its Islay neighbour Bunnahabhain, Bruichladdich has traditionally been an un-peated single malt, mostly owing to its requirements by the blenders who owned it. The last of these was Whyte and Mackay, who eventually shut it down in 1995, deeming it surplus to requirements. They sold the distillery to Murray McDavid in 2001, who launched the peated Port Charlotte and heavily-peated Octomore single malts in 2006 and 2008. A recommissioned Lomond still also now produces the popular Botanist gin there. Released in 2001, this is the first 10 year old to be released after the re-opening of the distillery by Murray McDavid. It was joined by a 15 and 20 year old, all produced using casks distilled under the previous ownership. The vatting was drawn from 60% Spanish oak and 40% American oak.
