- Description
- Bladnoch's 21-year-old from September 1991, bottled in August 2013 at 51.5% ABV from refill hogshead cask 9956, represents Douglas Laing's Old Particular range standards—natural color, non-chill-filtered, and limited to 170 bottles. The Lowland distillery's fruity character develops complexity over two decades, with orchard fruit, subtle spice, and light wood influence in balance. The cask strength and lack of filtration preserve full texture and subtle grain character. A serious single-cask expression for those who value provenance, natural bottling, and mature Lowland whisky.
