Announced late last month, Vinaya, which is Sanskrit for ‘respect and gratitude’, comprises whisky that has been matured in ex-Bourbon and ex-Sherry casks. The no-age-statement iteration represents the widest release since Bladnoch was brought out of liquidation six years ago.

“As we embark on the 204th year of Bladnoch Distillery, the launch of Vinaya feels particularly significant”, said owner David Prior. “It is important for us to show gratitude to the previous custodians of this historic brand and estate as we move forward into our most ambitious year yet”.

Last week, Diageo revealed it had produced 173,000 bottles for its Scotch whisky brand Black & White using a method with up to a 90% smaller carbon footprint.
