Murray McDavid
Established early in 1994, Murray McDavid has quickly become a leading Scotch whisky bottler. One of the first to start using a variety of interesting casks in the Art of Maturation to produce Inspired Scotch Whisky.
Murray McDavid was established by London wine merchants Mark Reynier, Simon Coughlin and Springbank Distillery’s Gordon Wright. They quickly gained a reputation for maturing whisky in interesting casks, especially in fine wine casks.
In 2000, the Murray McDavid team set about reopening the closed Bruichladdich Distillery on Islay, engaging the services of Jim McEwan, Islay’s most celebrated Master Distiller.
In 2012, spirits giant Remy Cointreau purchased Bruichladdich Distillery and Murray McDavid. Later, Murray McDavid was sold to its current owners, leading Scotch whisky broker, Aceo Ltd.
Today, the home of Murray McDavid is Coleburn Distillery in Speyside, where we continue the tradition of bottling artfully-matured Scotch whisky.
Cask Craft Series
Croftengea Marsala Finish
The gently peated malt and the Italian wine cask combine to create sumptuous flavors of sweet hickory, honied cereal and BBQ tropical fruits. A fine dance between oak and spirit leaves a long moreish finish with elegant, sweet smoke. 44.5% ABV
Dailuaine Bourbon Finish
This traditional ex-bourbon cask complements the malty, creamy texture of this Speyside distillery. Pronounced “dal-oo-nan,” this distillery has long been a component of the Johnny Walker blend. 44.5% ABV
Glen Elgin Peated Finish
This courageous cask craft between oak and spirit develops a style of Glen Elgin like no other, producing a zesty character of mellow bonfire embers, lemon and honey with a deliciously long and satisfying finish. 44.5% ABV
Linkwood Madeira Finish
Combining the classic Speyside malt and the exotic wine cask has produced alluring aromas of red currants, honied cereal and milk chocolate which flow onto the palate, leaving a long warming finish with flavors of sweet oak spice. 44.5% ABV
Mannochmore Port Finish
The rich, heavy style of Mannochmore demands to be finished in a cask type equal to its bold nature. The sumptuous Tawny port casks tame the spirit to create a luxurious whisky full of chocolate, dried fruits and a long, floral finish. 44.5% ABV
