Founded in 1779, Bowmore is the oldest working distillery on the Isle of Islay. Its delicately peated, well-balanced spirit has been an inspiration for many a whisky lover for many years. This Bowmore single malt has been matured for its final four years in a fresh port pipe.

This Bowmore was originally matured in a 500-litre sherry cask to give slow, gentle maturation. The European oak gives the spirit a soft oaky spiciness and dried fruit flavours.

After seven years maturing in the Sherry butt, the Murray McDavid Whisky Creations Team transferred the whisky into a freshly emptied first-fill Port wine cask, or 'pipe'. The rich, sweet, fruity Port gives additional depth of flavour and further increases the smoky character of this classic Islay peated malt.

Set in the foothills of the Cairngorm Mountains, Fettercairn is a traditional distillery producing a full-bodied single malt. The picturesque distillery is one of the few active stills in the eastern Highlands of Scotland. This classic malt has been guided through a series of bourbon barrels.

After seventeen years maturing in a refill American oak cask, Fettercairn was selected by Murray McDavid's Whisky Creations Team for finishing in a fresh bourbon cask. The highly active American oak has given the Fettercairn spirit sweet vanilla and spicy notes. This showcases the unique character of the Fettercairn spirit, as well as the quality of the casks available at Murray McDavid's traditional Victorian dunnage warehouse a the Coleburn Distillery in Speyside.

The tradition of our Peatside continues, once again capturing the power and vibrancy displayed within youthful peated whisky. This vatting combines two fledgling single malts, one heavily peated, the other creamy and sweet. Together they unite to create a blend with an intense natural peaty smokiness. By further maturing these Scotch whiskies in fresh Pedro Ximènez Sherry and bourbon casks, our Whisky Creations Team achieve a brilliant balance between peat, malt and oak. Our latest Peatside is a perfect example of the Art of Maturation that we are dedicated to at Murray McDavid.
