Bladnoch 11 Year Old Scotch Whisky
Bladnoch 11 Year Old Scotch Whisky is the Lowlands at their most elegant: an 11-year-old single malt matured exclusively in ex-bourbon casks, bottled at 46.7% ABV without chill filtration and with natural color — and it is available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor, San Diego, CA.
Bladnoch, Scotland's southernmost distillery (est. 1817, revived under Australian owner David Prior in 2015), is known for a light, grassy, floral Lowland style — and the 11 Year Old is its purest expression of ex-bourbon maturation. Master Distiller Dr. Nick Savage hand-selects every cask.
Distillery tasting notes: delicate florals, honey, refreshing citrus, and cut grass on the nose; floral Parma Violets, fresh-cut apple, and hints of wood spice on the palate; a sweet, mouth-coating finish.
Why buy Bladnoch 11? Because it's a masterclass in what ex-bourbon wood does for Lowland spirit — honeyed, floral, and precise, at a strength that needs no water. Explore the Scotch whisky collection, the Bladnoch brand collection, and all whisky.
