About this bottle

Bladnoch Single Malt 19 YO, PX Cask, 2023 release

Bladnoch stands as the world’s oldest privately owned Scotch whisky distillery, its legacy still flowing seamlessly since 1817.

The rich heritage of Bladnoch traces its origins to John and Thomas McClelland, who were granted the esteemed license to distil whisky on their Bladnoch farm in Scotland’s Lowlands. Over nearly a century, successive McClelland generations nurtured and modernized the distillery. At its zenith, the site boasted six washbacks and an annual production of approximately 230,000 liters of alcohol, solidifying its stature as the “Queen of the Lowlands.”
