Murray Mc David

Murray McDavid – Independent Scotch whiskey with character

Murray McDavid is a renowned independent bottler of Scotch whisky from the Speyside region, known for its creative approach to cask maturation and bottling. With over 30 years of experience in the "Art of Maturation," the brand develops whiskies with distinctive flavor characteristics through the use of special oak casks and finishes.

The Story Behind Murray McDavid

Murray McDavid was founded in 1996 by whisky pioneers Mark Reynier, Simon Coughlin, and Gordon Wright. The brand quickly became known for its experimental and quality-focused approach—not just bottling, but maturation and finishing are the art. The whiskies are matured in a variety of high-quality casks (such as ex-sherry, ex-port, rum, or wine casks), resulting in rich, complex aromas and layered flavors.

Today, Murray McDavid operates from the historic Coleburn Distillery in Speyside, where its whiskies are matured in traditional dunnage warehouses under bond — an environment that helps ensure even, controlled maturation.
