They offer whisky connoisseurs the opportunity exceptional rarities to taste. These range from the unknown to the famous distilleries of different ages and special Wood-finishings.

The Scottish Whisky Company is one of the independent bottlers and entered 1997 the first series to the public. In December 2000, the founder of Murray bought then the disused distillery Bruichladdich and led it to its former glory. As Master Distiller Jim McEwan Whisky Legend could be won, a bottling plant was built and even set up a whisky Academy.
