One tin lighter

Eco-friendly Bruichladdich Distillers are removing its tins on its web-shop and in its distillery shop in an effort to reduce packaging.

While already the tins were manufactured from steel which was 100 percent recyclable, the progressive distillery, located on the Isle of Islay, questioned whether its whisky needed a tin at all.

Although customers can still request a tin, Bruichladdich is requesting that they don’t.

“Today we ask you to support this decision by leaving the tin out of your basket. Long-term, that’s one less tin produced and transported, one less tin that could end up in landfill, and one big vote of confidence for a more progressive future.

“Our aim is to one day remove all of our tins globally. It’s a massive task but one that’s achievable if we start one tin at a time. Start with us today and choose to go one tin lighter,” said Bruichladdich.
