Portrait: What makes the Bladnoch 16 year old Heritage Collection special.

In Galloway, a cluster of bluestone buildings dating back to 1817 sits beside the River Bladnoch.
Bladnoch is the oldest privately owned Scotch whisky distillery and the home of Bold Galloway Spirits. The Bladnoch "taste-first" philosophy means that the whisky is bottled when the time is right.
This knowledge of whiskymaking, the diverse combination of casks, and the ability to take calculated risks create a broader spectrum of whisky flavors.
Each whisky is handcrafted using pure water from the Bladnoch River, British-grown barley, and the highest quality casks (95% first fill casks).
All Bladnoch single malts are non-chill filtered and are also colorless to preserve the full depth of flavor.
The Bladnoch 16 Year Old was matured exclusively in Oloroso sherry casks and is part of the Heritage Collection, which includes the Bladnoch bottlings with an age statement.
