SCYFOOD > Whisky Bruichladdich 1986 Rare Cask Series 30 Year Old Contact Customer Service ENQUIRY Like its island neighbour Bunnahabhain distillery, 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 & 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 A sherry cask bottling of Bruichladdich, this is called The Magnificent Seven and is part of the Rare Cask Series. This is comprised of the final seven casks of the 1986 vintage, matured first in Oloroso sherry butts before being finished in a parcel of PX butts from winemaker Jan Pettersen at Bodega Fernando de Castilla. One of 4200 bottles. Bottled Strength: 44.6% Bottle Size: 70cl
