Description

This limited edition Bruichladdich was released in 2002 to celebrate the 1718 publication of 'The Practical Distiller: Treatise of Practical Distillation'. It is an 18-year-old un-peated single malt, distilled in 1984, and was one of the first bottlings under the direction of Jim McEwan and Mark Reynier. It comes in an elaborate wooden box and includes a reprint of the book. This release is a vatting of two bourbon casks, numbers 14 and 15.
