The Bruichladdich 1988 Valinch for the Middle White Pig Society #930 is a remarkable single malt Scotch whisky distilled in 1988 and meticulously bottled in 2003 after 15 years of maturation in a single fresh bourbon cask #930. This limited edition release was exclusively available at the Bruichladdich Distillery on the Isle of Islay and was initiated to celebrate the distillery's re-opening. This special bottling was handpicked by the Middle White Pig Society, an organization that visited the distillery and chose cask #930 for this exclusive release. Bottled at an impressive cask strength of 59.9%, this 500ml bottle features a distinctive label adorned with an image of the middle white pig. Bruichladdich Distillery, founded in 1881 by the Harvey brothers, is renowned for producing unpeated whisky, favored by the local community. The distillery ceased operations in 1995 but was revitalized in 2000 when Murray McDavid acquired it. Under the expert guidance of Master Distiller Jim McEwan, Bruichladdich has released a diverse range of expressions, including the medium-peated Port Charlotte and the heavily-peated Octomore. In 2012, the distillery was acquired by Remy Cointreau. Bruichladdich continues to innovate with plans to develop its own maltings and implement sustainable farming practices.
