Bladnoch Vinaya Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700ml
Lowland Single Malt Scotch Whisky - 46.7% ABV | Bladnoch Distillery, Lowlands, Scotland
Experience the refined elegance of Bladnoch Vinaya, a distinguished single malt from Scotland’s oldest independent Lowland distillery, established in 1817. This exquisite whisky embodies a perfect harmony of tradition and innovation, matured meticulously in a combination of first-fill ex-bourbon and sherry casks to deliver a complex yet approachable profile.
The nose captivates with bright, fresh aromas of green apple, cut pear, and lemon sherbet, unfolding delicate floral notes and subtle honeyed new oak. A gentle almond sweetness hints at the depth beneath the surface, inviting a deeper exploration.
On the palate, Vinaya reveals a crisp, well-structured character where creamy vanilla, poached stone fruit, and citrus peel form a delicate framework. The influence of sherry casks adds restrained warmth through dried apricot, sultana, and a whisper of ginger spice, creating a balanced and elegant whisky that is youthful yet refined.
The finish is clean and slightly drying, leaving lingering traces of oak, orange oil, and barley sugar. This understated conclusion reflects the careful craftsmanship and composure that define the expression.
Vinaya pays tribute to its heritage while embracing a forward-looking spirit. Crafted from pure Scottish barley and non chill filtered to preserve its natural character, this single malt whisky offers clarity and purity with every sip. It is a true representation of the Lowlands region, known for producing light, elegant malts with principled simplicity.
