About this Murray McDavid whisky
Glenburgie is a high quality spirit, that one doesn't often see, as it all tends to go into Ballantines. It is a fragrant, sweet, slightly grassy single malt with a lick of oiliness. Independent bottlers like Murray McDavid are about your only bet to try Glenburgie. And, my goodness, how's this for an example?! The whisky matured in a 500 litre sherry butt for 10.5 years, before it was re-racked into a 350 litres first fill sauternes wine cask for a second maturation of 2.5 years. Bottled natural colour, non-chill filtered, at cask strength, this is a must-try.

What about taxes?
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. If you refuse to pay any import duties and taxes, this could result in the goods being destroyed by customs or being returned back to us - any refund offered would include a deduction of our costs.
