Bladnoch Samsara Limited Release Scotch

Bladnoch Samsara Limited Release is a limited expression from Scotland’s most southerly distillery — Bladnoch in Dumfries & Galloway, presenting the revived distillery’s Lowland single malt character finished in California red wine casks and heavily charred ex-bourbon barrels for a uniquely complex combination of bourbon intensity and California wine character on the distillery’s clean, fresh base spirit.

The Samsara name references the Hindu and Buddhist concept of continuous cycle and rebirth — a fitting name for a distillery that was itself revived from closure. The California red wine and charred bourbon cask combination produces a distinctively complex finishing character unusual for a Lowland single malt. Browse all Scotch whisky at Wooden Cork.
