SCYFOOD > Whisky Bruichladdich 1986 Blacker Still 20 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. Bruichladdich released the Blacker Still in 2006, and it was matured exclusively in Oloroso sherry casks for 20 years. This was the first release in the ‘...Still’ series, and quickly became an icon of collectable Bruichladdich. Only 2,840 bottles were produced. Bottled Strength: 50.7% Bottle Size: 70cl
