Bladnoch 1990 14 Year Old Chieftain's

Mothballed in 2009, Bladnoch distillery got a stay of execution when it was purchased by Australian yoghurt tycoon David Prior. The distillery (near Wigtown in Dumfries and Galloway) was what you would call "a bit of a fixer upper"; but after extensive renovations, production finally resumed in summer 2017, and three stylishly rebranded expressions were bottled from existing stock.

As well as holding the title for most southerly Scottish distillery, Bladnoch is also one of the oldest, and it seems rather poetic that its phoenix-like resurrection takes place during its bicentennial year.

Chieftain's - named for the Celtic leaders - is an award-winning range of rare malts from Ian Macleod Distillers aimed at the whisky connoisseur. Each bottle label holds information on everything from wood type to vintage with some aged up to 50 years.
