Bruichladdich WMD II Yellow Submarine 1991 First Release With T-Shirt
Lot number: 320496
Winning bid: £155
After an Islay fisherman came across the tiny yellow submarine marked "Ministry of Defence", the MoD denied it was theirs. However they sheepishly slipped into Islay one morning and took it back. Bruichladdich responded by issuing a limited release 1991 Laddie - Weapons of Mass Destruction II The Yellow Submarine. Distilled in 1991 and matured for 14 years, it's 700ml and bottled at 46%.
This bottle is accompanied by a Bruichladdich yellow submarine T-shirt, size M. Signed by Jim McEwan. This is an early release tin; later versions had the yellow submarine on the tin as well as the bottle.
