Murray McDavid are highly respected in the Scotch whisky industry, mainly for independently bottling whisky after selecting and ageing the spirit in high quality oak casks. Established in 1996 by Mark Reynier, Simon Coughlin, and Gordon Wright at the closed site of the Coleburn distillery in Speyside, Scotland.  They are also known for the purchase of the closed Bruichladdich Distillery in 2000 and reopening this dormant distillery. They did such a good job of restoring production it was sold to Remy Cointreau in 2012 with a considerable profit.

This independent bottling by Murray McDavid has been initially matured in a single refill ex Bourbon cask for no less than 10 years. It was bottled at 46% alc/vol as part of the Murray McDavid Mystery Malt limited release series. Only 290 bottles were produced for worldwide distribution. After tasting this mystery malt we are absolutely certain it’s a single cask Laphroaig, can you tell what it is?
