Islay Trilogy 36 years 1969 Murray Mc David One of 1200 Mission Cask Strength Series
The wine
A blend of Bunnahabhain 1968 matured in sherry casks, Bowmore 1969 matured in bourbon casks, and Bruichladdich 1966 matured in bourbon casks. Murray McDavid is an independent bottler founded in 1996 by Mark Reynier, Simon Coughlin and Gordon Wright, the former director of Springbank. They specialized in ageing whiskies in unusual casks, particularly wine casks, adding the term “ACE-ing” to their labels, standing for “additional cask enhancement”. After being bought by the Rémy Cointreau group at the same time as the Bruichladdich distillery that had been reopened by Murray McDavid in 2000, it is now owned by the broker Aceo Ltd and continues to operate from the former Coleburn distillery in Speyside, whose warehouses it uses. The Mission range ran from 2002 until 2006 and featured five series of bottlings from Murray McDavid’’s finest selections. A limited edition of 1,200 bottles.
