Bladnoch 17 Year Old
Description
Bladnoch 17 Year Old is a prestige age-stated expression from Scotland’s most southerly distillery — Bladnoch in Dumfries & Galloway, presenting 17 years of the revived Lowland distillery’s single malt character in a combination of ex-bourbon and ex-sherry cask maturation, producing the most developed and complex expression in the current Bladnoch age-stated range.
At 17 years the Bladnoch character has developed significant complexity from the dual-cask maturation — the vanilla and fruit from American oak combined with the spice and dried fruit from sherry cask at a maturity that the younger expressions don’t achieve. Browse all Scotch whisky at Wooden Cork.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Bladnoch 17 Year good value for a 17-year Lowland?
Yes — Bladnoch is consistently undervalued as Scotland’s most southerly distillery. The 17-year tends to offer genuine aged complexity at a competitive price for its age and Lowland heritage.
How does the 17 Year compare to the 11 Year?
Six additional years of dual-cask maturation produces noticeably more integration, deeper character, and a more sustained and complex finish. The 17 Year is the premium apex of the current Bladnoch standard age-stated range.
