Bladnoch Distillery, established in 1817, holds the distinction of being the oldest privately owned Scotch whisky distillery in the world. Situated along the serene banks of the River Bladnoch in Scotland's Lowlands, it is also the southernmost distillery in Scotland. After a turbulent history, Australian entrepreneur David Prior purchased the distillery in 2015 and launched a major investment project to restore and transform Bladnoch into a world-class whisky producer. Bladnoch's portfolio reflects both tradition and innovation. The distillery produces elegant Lowland single malts known for their approachable, lighter character, while also offering peated expressions through its dedicated Peated Collection, which includes Alinta, Alinta Reserve, and a range of single cask bottlings. The Heritage Collection further showcases the distillery's depth and versatility. Bladnoch has also released impressive aged expressions, including a 30-year-old single malt matured in Oloroso Sherry and Moscatel casks, marking its oldest release to date. With a storied heritage spanning over two centuries, Bladnoch continues to earn recognition as one of Scotland's most historically significant and innovative distilleries. Its combination of centuries-old craftsmanship and modern ambition makes it a compelling name in the world of Lowland Scotch whisky.
