Bruichladdich Distillery, Islay

Bruichladdich is found on the edge of Loch Indaal in Islay and was built in 1881 by Barnet Harvey. The distillery stayed in the Harvey Family until 1936 and was then involved in several corporate merger's that lasted thirty years, however in the mid 90's it was found to be `surplus to requirements' and was closed down in 1995. In 2000 the silent distillery was purchased by Mark Reynier, Simon Coughlin, Gordon Wright and Jim McEwan and is once again a proud, independent Scottish company. Bruichladdich single malt whisky is non chill-filtered to enhance the depth of flavours, bottled with Islay Spring water and is non peated.
