Bruichladdich 25 Years Old 1991 Yellow Submarine

WMDIII The Legend Resurfaces
Lot #1490147
FINISH DATE
20 April 2026
A tribute to the early days at Bruichladdich, while searching through eBay back in 2016 Bruichladdich discovered a yellow submarine for sale! Identical to the bright yellow Royal Navy Submersible that Islay fisherman John Baker landed back in 2005 - Bruichladdich had to have it.  To celebrate this find, Head Distiller Adam Hannett hunted out the last parcel of the original 1991 spirit which is now an incredible 25 years old, and presented it as "WMD III The Legend Resurfaces". One of only 1,991 individual numbered bottles available.

Bruichladdich

Since Murray McDavid saved the distillery in 2000, with an asking price of £6.5 million. Bruichladdich has gone from strength to strength after a difficult initial period. Now under the ownership of Remy Cointreau, it is one of Islay’s most recognisable whiskies and brands. Remy brought much-needed financial clout that has allowed Bruichladdich to expand into new markets, build warehousing and pursue its brand of terroir. Today, it offers 3 distinctly different distillates, with the Bruichladdich being unpeated, a historical homage to a lost distillery (Port Charlotte) is heavily peated and well regarded. Then at the top of the peat ranking charts is Octomore, which pushes peat in new directions to an eager audience. Expect production details, various casks and eye-catching branding with each and every release from the distillery.

Frequently Asked Questions

You’ll need an account with us to place bids in any auction. Registration takes 60 seconds and there’s a small £5.00 registration fee, payable by credit or debit card. Once paid, you will be registered and can place bids in the auction immediately. The registration fee helps us ensure you’re a real person and a genuine bidder.
In the interest of fairness, any bids placed in the final five minutes of a particular lot will extend the end time of that Lot by 15 minutes. We believe in giving our customers a fair amount of time to increase their bid should they wish. Last second sniping isn’t in the spirit of our auctions and by using this system there is no benefit to doing so.
