This is a special 500 ml Friends of Bruichladdich bottling with Derek Mather and John McDougal on the label. It was distilled on 18 Jul 2005 and matured in a sherry cask. There were 830 total (500ml) bottles. The price was $107 for 500ml; and I've scaled up the displayed price for an equivalent 750ml bottle.
