QUADRUPLE
DISTILLED “PERILOUS WHISKY”
THE SPIRIT OF OUR FOREFATHERS.
IN 1695 MARTIN MARTIN, A HEBRIDEAN
TRAVELLER WROTE OF AN ANCIENT POWERFUL
SPIRIT, WHICH TRANSLATES FROM THE GAELIC
AS “PERILOUS WHISKY”. HE WAS TOLD BY THE
NATIVES: “ONE SIP AND YOU LIVE FOREVER;
TWO SIPS AND YOU GO BLIND; THREE SIPS AND
YOU EXPIRE ON THE SPOT”. HUMBLY, AND IN THE
TYPICAL BRUICHLADDICH SPIRIT OF ADVENTURE,
WE HAVE RE-CREATED THIS LEGENDARY,
QUADRUPLE-DISTILLED BLOCKBUSTER DRAM.

TASTE AND THE AROMATICS.
THE PURITY, THE ESSENCE
OF THE SPIRIT EVIDENT
FROM THE FIRST SIP.
CLEAN, FRESH, ALIVE,
INNOCENT, PURE AND
UNTAINTED BY TIME AND
OPINIONS. YOU WOULD

A LOT OF THE HEAT FROM

HAS ORIGINALITY AND

CREATIVITY, IMAGINATION
AND NON-CONFORMITY
TO PRODUCE.
