Murray McDavid
Murray McDavid was founded in 1997, specializing in the bottling of a wide range of single malts in short runs.
The bottlings are without exception of a captivating quality, which is not least due to the fact that Murray McDavid such greats as Jim McEwan (Master Distiller Bruichladdich), Mark Reynier, Simon Coughlin and Gordon Wright (a member of the Springbank clan) together to have!
Awarded several times by various whiskey industry institutions, Murray McDavid stands for exclusivity and the highest quality.
Murray McDavid offers his whiskeys exclusively without dyes and without cold filtration.
The malts are in ideal drinking strength with 46% vol. bottled (only exceptions are bottlings in barrel size).
For the mission series, barrels are selected from distilleries that are older than Murray McDavid's "common" bottlings.

Caperdonich 1968
The Speyside distillery was built in 1898 as a "branch" of Glen Grant.
The two distilleries were connected by a pipeline and Caperdonich was called therefore for a long time "Glen Grant No.2".
Four years later, in 1902, the distillery was shut down again.
Only after the merger of the Grants with Glenlivet and when the distillery was completely outdated, the operation was resumed in 1965.
Caperdonich is now part of the Chivas & Glenlivet Group.
Caperdonich produces a very solid, rather dry malt, as single malt he is only from independent bottlers to get.
Most of the production goes into the Chivas Regal blends.
