A secular resurrection that brought back some of the finest Scotch sips around happened in 2001. This series commemorates the first distillation of the re-opening of the famous distillery, and it’s called - Valinch I was there! (but not that day).

Today tho, there are just 250 bottles of this spectacular Single Malt in the world. A number that should spark some serious interest in a collector’s mind. Rare, a tad sweet, and full of history. Just like a delicacy should be.


*This bottle is a collector’s item; we will not be able to entertain any refunds or exchanges.

**Individual orders are limited to one item per person, as we wish to allow everyone to participate.

***Any kind of transit damage is insured and will be reimbursed.

Can Scotch go bad? Technically, an unopened bottle of Scotch can last forever. Air is the only true evil to Whisky; once the liquid is oxidized it is no longer immortal. After opening, as long as you store your Whisky in a cool, dry place, it will last another 5 years.
Is Scotch always Scottish? What do you think? Yes. The answer is yes.
Blended Whiskies are the result of years of craftsmanship and dedication. A master blender does not simply wake up one day with a profound ability to create a cohesive and enjoyable liquid. From nosing the liquid to working out quantities of each different grain and malt to go into the blend, a master blender can take years, if not decades, to train.
Bruichladdich is the largest single employer on the island with 60 full-time staff, and various temp and contract personnel.
Single malt stands for around 10% of the Scotch market. This is a malt containing only one grain, legally required to be barley in Scotland, and made at a single distillery.

A blended Scotch is a combination of different malts from different distilleries. It is typically made from grain Whisky but does include malt Whisky to give it a more complex body.
Bruichladdich is one of the few distilleries that dedicates 100% of production to their broad range of single malt Whisky.
