Bladnoch Alinta Lowland Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Lowland Single Malt Scotch Whisky (Scotland) | Finished in PX Sherry & Bourbon Casks | 47% ABV (94 Proof)
Process & Profile
Bladnoch Alinta Lowland Single Malt Scotch Whisky embodies a bold new chapter in the legacy of Scotland’s southernmost distillery. “Alinta” — meaning “fire” and “flame” in an Australian Aboriginal dialect — symbolizes both the whisky’s subtly smoky character and the rebirth of Bladnoch under modern craftsmanship.
Distilled from pure Lowland barley and matured first in ex-bourbon casks, this whisky is then finished in PX (Pedro Ximénez) sherry casks, imparting deep sweetness, warmth, and complexity. Bottled at 47% ABV, non-chill filtered, and naturally colored, Bladnoch Alinta stands apart as the distillery’s first-ever peated release — blending rich fruit, delicate smoke, and soft Lowland charm.
