The fine Bruichladdich Islay Single Malt was bottled on 27th August 2001 in an edition of only 150 individually hand-numbered bottles with the signature of Jim McEwan without the addition of colourants and chill-filtration at cask strength 53.5% vol.

A valinch, possibly from a Spanish term, is the name applied to a large, copper pipette used to take cask samples from whisky barrels. The view is if you have made the effort to get to Islay then you deserve something just a little extra special. Valinchs are by definition only ever at cask strength, from a single barrel, and selected by Jim McEwan for individuality. Each Valinch released has it s own label and title, usually to commemorate a specific event or person.
A exceptional and high collectible Bruichladdich Islay single malt Scotch whisky and rare expression for connoisseurs, the discerning whisky collector and lovers of fine old Scotch whiskies, now considered a true collector s gem.
