The historic distillery launches the latest exciting edition to their Annual Release range.
BLADNOCH, SCOTLAND (JUNE 10TH, 2021) – Bladnoch Distillery has announced the launch of their 19 Year Old Single Malt matured in ex Pedro Ximenez casks. The new release will become part of the distillery’s catalogue of annual releases, alongside the award-winning 11 Year Old and 14 Year Old Single Malts.
The 19 Year Old is the first PX Sherry expression that the distillery has released and the flavourful casks have imparted delectable notes of dark liquorice sticks, dried apricots and warming nutmeg into the golden-hued whisky.
Bladnoch Master Distiller, Dr Nick Savage remarked, “The launch of our new 19 year old whisky, adds another dimension to Bladnoch’s portfolio of annual releases. Extraordinary Pedro Ximenez casks matured at Bladnoch complement the existing range with a beautifully rich and sweet whisky.

About Bladnoch Distillery
Bladnoch Distillery was established in 1817, making it the oldest working Scotch Whisky Distillery in the Lowlands. As the southernmost distillery in Scotland, it is commonly referred to as the ‘Queen of the Lowlands.’ Hand crafted using only the finest local ingredients such as the pristine water from the River Bladnoch that flows alongside the distillery and Scottish barley create a rich, flavourful whisky that is best savoured. Bladnoch single malts are non-chill filtered to ensure the truest flavours shine through.
This legacy brand has been revived by Master Distiller Dr. Nick Savage, formerly at The Macallan, and owner David Prior, a whisky connoisseur who is the first Australian businessman to own a Scotch whisky distillery. Bladnoch is truly passionate about the preservation of the environment and the local community’s generational involvement in the iconic distillery.
