Bladnoch 8 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700ml
Lowland Single Malt Scotch Whisky - 46.7% ABV - Matured in Ex-Bourbon Casks | Bladnoch Distillery, Lowlands, Scotland
Experience the refined elegance of Bladnoch 8 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky, a distinguished expression from one of Scotland’s oldest Lowland distilleries. Bottled at a robust 46.7% ABV, this whisky embodies youthful vibrancy combined with a disciplined, flavour-first approach to maturation.
Crafted exclusively from ex-bourbon casks, this single malt reveals the hallmark characteristics of the Lowlands region: lightness, clarity, and a delicate floral profile. Its bright and expressive nose offers enticing notes of lemon peel, pear drop sweets, vanilla cream, and soft malt, complemented by subtle hints of fresh-cut hay and a whisper of coconut. This aromatic complexity invites a sensory journey that is both invigorating and grounded.
On the palate, Bladnoch 8 Year Old delivers a lively yet structured experience. Flavours of barley sugar, white peach, and buttery shortbread glide smoothly, enhanced by gentle oak-derived vanilla undertones. A subtle char and a touch of tropical fruit add layers of texture and depth, culminating in a crisp, drying finish with lingering oak spice, orchard fruit, and a refreshing flicker of menthol.
This whisky is a confident core expression that does not rely on age or gimmicks but instead showcases the purity of the distillate and the finesse of its maturation. At just eight years old, it is a testament to Bladnoch’s commitment to quality and tradition, offering a transparent and honest dram with impeccable balance.
