Jim McEwan Signature Collection 1st & 2nd Release Tasting Pack 6 x 30ml
Tasting Notes:
The term 'legend' is bandied about far too often these days. In the case of Jim McEwan, however, there is no other word that can be used.
Jim has spent more time than most in the whisky industry, starting as a teenage cooper at Bowmore before inventing the role of a Brand Ambassador, traveling the world and showcasing whisky.
He is most famous for his time at Bruichladdich, rejuvenating the distillery and creating some of the finest Islay whiskies of the modern era. During his time there Jim built up a collection of private casks, and this collection of whiskies became known as the Jim McEwan Signature Collection.
