About this Murray McDavid whisky
Built in 1798, south of the Cairngorms is one of Scotland’s most visited distilleries – Blair Athol. The spirit from this traditional distillery has been in favour with master blenders for hundreds of years. It's celebrated for its full-bodied character. Now, for the very first time, Blair Athol appears in Murray McDavid colours. Developing sweetness from bourbon casks, it was further matured for 20 months in freshly emptied Oloroso Sherry casks. These have gently progressed its opulent character. The rich, nutty Blair Athol spirit is a new favourite amongst Murray McDavid's Whisky Creations Team.

All alcoholic products sold by TopWhiskies are sold subject to UK alcohol tax, which is already included in the price.
UK sales are subject to VAT (currently 20%), which is included in the price. Sales outside of the UK are not subject to this tax, and international prices do not include it.
We use a specialist US shipper who sorts out US taxes. These costs are factored into the US shipping charges. So shipping may look pricey, but remember it covers your taxes as well.
For all other territories, including those in Europe, please note: your order could be subject to local sales taxes and duties upon arrival in the destination country. All additional charges are the responsibility of the recipient. As customs policies vary widely from country to country, TopWhiskies has no control over these charges, so you should contact your local customs office for further information.
