Old Photographs Bruichladdich Islay Scotland

Old photograph of Bruichladdich, Islay, Scotland. Bruichladdich whisky distillery was begun in 1881 by the Harvey brothers on the shore of Loch Indaal, on the Rinns of Islay, the westernmost part of the island. The Harveys were a dynastic whisky family that had owned two Glasgow distilleries since 1770. All the distillery’s whiskies are sold as single malts, with those designated Bruichladdich being unpeated, those designated Port Charlotte being heavily peated and those designated Octomore being super heavily peated. Octomore is considered to be the most heavily peated single malt whisky in the world.
