Process & Profile

Bladnoch 19 Year Single Malt Scotch Whisky explores the rich influence of Pedro Ximénez sherry casks on the distillery’s Lowland spirit. Aged exclusively in PX sherry casks for 19 years, this expression develops distinctive notes of dark licorice, dried apricot, and nutmeg, supported by mature oak and a delicate floral character.

The first PX sherry expression released by Bladnoch, this single malt brings together casks selected by Master Distiller Dr. Nick Savage. Produced using Scottish barley and water from the River Bladnoch, it is bottled at 46.7% ABV without chill filtration. Its balance of dried fruit, spice, and lingering dryness offers depth for drinkers who enjoy sherry-matured Scotch.
