Description

A distillery with a turbulent history, punctuated by numerous ownership changes. It is currently part of the Pure Scot Ltd holdings of Australian entrepreneur and yoghurt mogul, David Prior. Although historically operated for the provision of blends, it is now focussed on its single malt brand. This is an independent bottling of Bladnoch Distillery single malt scotch by Alexander Murray and Co, a California-based independent bottler founded in 2004. Bladnoch is one of the most historic and rarest distilleries in Scotland, established in 1817 as a Farmhouse Distillery, and stands as the most southerly distillery. For most of its modern history, Bladnoch operated as a tiny producer, with its spirit largely directed into blends, making single malt notoriously difficult to find. This 1990 vintage, 25-year-old expression was matured in refill ex-bourbon casks.

Nose
Waxy, syrupy, and full of tropical fruit, with ripe mango, papaya, guava, kiwi, and melon, layered with sweet floral notes, delicate fruit jam, apricots, malted barley, vanilla icing sugar, and clotted cream.
Palate
Smooth and sweet with hints of citrus, banana, toasted grain, strawberry pastries, mint, brewed dark tea, waxy oak, maple sugar, Mandarin orange, white grapes, and gentle spice.
Finish
Long and lingering, smooth with delicate spice, soft vanilla, and a quietly fading sweetness; light to medium in length with exotic fruits and sweet oaky vanillans lingering longest.
