After marrying together, these spirits were left to rest in Sherry casks, at Murray McDavid's traditional dunnage warehouses at Coleburn Distillery.
Òrdha Meas is a sweet, fruity, creamy blend of malt and grain whiskies from active and closed distilleries from across all five whisky producing regions of Scotland. A classic maturation, each spirit was initially aged separately in bourbon barrels and then blended after more than ten years in the warehouse. The Whisky Creations Team then used European oak sherry casks to mature whiskies together for a few more years. This allowed the malts and grains to integrate and work in harmony with one another. Òrdha Meas showcases the Whisky Creations Team's skill not only in the art of maturation but also in the art of blending.

Distillery Notes
At Murray McDavid, we understand the importance of maturation in the making of whisky. Using our many years of experience and the best oak casks from around the world, we create diverse styles of inspired Scotch whisky.
Our Whisky Creations Team travel the world in search of good wood. We select sherry casks from the bodegas of Spain, fortified wine casks from Madeira, port pipes from Portugal and a wide selection of wine barriques from Europe’s finest vineyards. We also seek out American oak barrels from bourbon makers in the United States and rum casks from distilleries in the Caribbean. We have exclusive wood supply agreements with our cask suppliers, such as the Koval Distillery in Chicago and the Murça wine cooperative in Portugal.
It’s our emphasis on getting the best casks and practising the Art of Maturation that makes Murray McDavid’s whiskies truly special.
