Lowland Scotch whisky distillery Bladnoch is making its biggest release since owner David Prior revived the company with the new Vinaya Single Malt expression. Vinaya is a Sanskrit word meaning respect and gratitude. The new single malt whisky is designed to pay homage to the original distillery founders while Bladnoch moves forward with its new era of production and innovation. Image Source: Bladnoch Distillery “Vinaya is a stunning expression of Bladnoch’s style and we’re excited to share it with the world,” said Prior of the new expression. “As we embark on the 204th year of Bladnoch Distillery, the launch of Vinaya feels particularly significant. It is important for us to show gratitude to the previous custodians of this historic brand and estate as we move forward into our most ambitious year yet.”
Notes of fresh apple, sweet floral grass, and hints of chocolate make the release a proper representation of Lowland style single malt. As with all Bladnoch releases, Vinaya is non-chill filtered and natural color with water sourced from the River Bladnoch which flows alongside the historic distillery. The expression also boasts a unique pair of cask types, ex-Bourbon and ex-Sherry, a combination never before released by the brand. “By using 1st fill ex-Bourbon barrels, we’re able to highlight the floral notes from the distillery character along with refreshing, citrus sweetness,” said Master Distiller Dr. Nick Savage. “The 1st fill ex-Sherry casks then add a subtle rich body to the whisky and mouthfeel to the experience, finishing with notes of chocolate. These individual aspects combine to showcase the classic aspects of our distillery.” Tasting Notes Strength: 46.7% Nose: Sweet floral grass with boiled sweets Palate: Fresh green apples and chocolate with a hint of pepper Finish: Light and refreshing For more information on the Vinaya Single Malt Whisky visit Bladnoch Distillery’s official website.
