Bruichladdich Gift Baskets

Inspired by an entrepreneurial flair and a youthful enthusiasm, the Harvey brothers began construction of the Bruichladdich (pronounced brook-laddie or broo-lah-dee) Distillery in 1881. For five decades, the brothers descendants of a dynastic whisky family owned and operated the distillery. Following the death of William Harvey in 1936, however, the distillery changed hands a number of times and was shut down in 1994, seemingly forever. In 2000, the distillery was purchased by a group of investors led by Mark Reynier and Murray McDavid. Together, the pair convinced Jim McEwan, who had been working at Bowmore Distillery since the age of 15, to join Bruichladdich as master distiller.Today, McEwans incredible work ethic and creative vision have made Bruichladdich Distillery one of the most exciting and innovative distilleries in Scotland.Bruichladdich Single Malt Whisky is made exclusively from unpeated barley grown on 23 different farms in Scotland. After the grains are milled and mashed, they are fermented in the distillerys original washbacks, which are made of Douglas Fir. The wood from the washbacks absorbs heat generated during fermentation, and allows for a longer, slower fermentation process as compared to steel, resulting in a more flavorful and rich whisky.After fermentation, the wash is distilled twice through Bruichladdichs 130 year-old, 20-foot tall, diamond-shaped stills. The Victorian-era stills produce whisky that is notably floral and elegant.The Classic Laddie is "our signature bottling and the definitive Bruichladdich," says McEwan. Trickle distilled and matured for its entire life in American oak casks that were previously used to mature bourbon, the whisky has an aroma of green apples, stewed berries and biscuits. The aroma gives way to notes of citrus, melon, vanilla and salted caramel on the palate, and finishes with a touch chocolate, honey and earl gray tea.This whisky "is a testament to the quality of our ingredients," says McEwan.
