Description

Over 40,000 casks from more than 90 different Scottish distilleries: This outstanding treasure trove of wood is the hallmark of Murray McDavid. The independent bottler was founded in 1994 by industry luminaries such as Mark Reynier and quickly made a name for itself with its maturation in exquisite casks. Since 2013, Edward Odim and Dean Jode (Aceo Ltd) have successfully breathed new life into Murray McDavid.

The house's bottlings are released in seven different series. At The Vatting, connoisseurs will find styles and flavors recreated through the art of blending. For the mysterious Peatside 6 yo, for example, Murray McDavid combined single malts from unexpected origins. This blended malt Scotch whisky owes its velvety yet hearty character, with bold notes of berries, spice, and bacon, to its maturation in American oak and refinement in port and Pedro Ximénez sherry casks.
