Bladnoch 19 Year Old 2023 Release 70cl, 46.7%
Tasting Notes
Colour: Golden hue. This is supported by the official Bladnoch product description rather than a separate formal colour line.
Nose: Dark liquorice sticks and aged oak with a floral background.
Palate: Liquorice sticks with dried apricots, almonds, and nutmeg.
Finish: Long, warming, and oak-led. This is an inference based on Bladnoch’s official three-word profile, “Liquorice, apricots, oak,” and the published palate structure.
Description
Bladnoch 19 Year Old 2023 Release 70cl, 46.7% is a Lowland single malt Scotch whisky from Bladnoch’s Galloway Collection, bottled at 46.7% ABV. Official Bladnoch information describes it as aged exclusively in Pedro Ximénez sherry casks, while Whiskybase records the 2023 Release as a 19-year-old bottling dated 7 November 2022.
This release stands out because it gives Bladnoch’s lighter Lowland style a much richer sherried frame than a bourbon-led maturation would. The Pedro Ximénez casks bring darker fruit, liquorice, nutty depth, and warming spice, while still keeping the whisky polished rather than overly aggressive. The final point is an inference based on the official cask type and published tasting notes.
It also carries proper age-statement appeal within the modern Bladnoch range. The distillery places it in the Galloway Collection, a range of single and double cask matured whiskies aged in first-fill casks, which gives the bottle a more premium and age-led identity than the core younger expressions.
Why Choose Bladnoch 19 Year Old 2023 Release
This is a strong choice for customers who want a mature official Lowland bottling with rich sherry influence, a clear age statement, and an approachable strength. It combines 19 years of maturation, PX cask character, official distillery provenance, and a polished flavour profile in one bottle.

Collector’s Note
This is not a rarity-led single-cask collector bottle, but it has clear enthusiast appeal because it combines official distillery status, a 19-year age statement, PX sherry maturation, and a defined annual release identity. It is better viewed as a premium mature Bladnoch with strong drinking and gifting appeal than as a scarcity-driven trophy bottle. The second sentence is an inference based on the reviewed sources and the lack of any public outturn figure.
