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!

The malts are in ideal drinking strength with 46% vol. bottled (only exceptions are bottlings in barrel size).
Under the highest quality standards, four to six barrels of a vintage of a distillery are selected and bottled in the in-house bottling plant at Bruichladdich on Islay.
Since December 2000, Murray McDavid has been the proud owner of the distillery Bruichladdich.
On each bottle are the dates of the whiskey, as well as a small story for bottling.

Rosebank
As early as 1817, a distillery called Rosebank existed. However, it is not provable whether today's distillery can be associated with it.
There are documents indicating that Rosebank had been in operation only since 1840, but no later than 1864.
In 1914, Rosebank joined DCL (Distillers Company Ltd.) and later UD (United Distillers).
Rosebank was decommissioned in 1993 and partially converted into a restaurant.
A planned revival of the Lowland distillery is now excluded.

The malt is considered the most elegant among the Lowlands, especially soft with a remarkable balance - maybe because Rosebank distilled her whiskey three times.
