{"product_id":"bladnoch-2007-vintage-exclusive-release","title":"Bladnoch 2007 Cask Strength","description":"\u003cp\u003eBack in October 2018, Bladnoch released their first ever private edition: a superb 10 Year Old Cask Strength Created Exclusively for the Whisky Club. It had a huge waitlist at the time and has since become one of our (if not one of the world’s) most sought-after whiskies and judging by the massive demand for Bladnoch at auction recently that’s not at all surprising.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNow they’ve done it again one more time, only bigger and better than before...Introducing Bladnoch 2007 Cask Strength Created Exclusively for The Whisky Club.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere’s more to creating a whisky than simply marrying a whole lot of casks together and then releasing it at the desired ABV. Master Distiller Dr Nick Savage personally noses each cask in the warehouse every couple of years and writes down which direction the casks will take in terms of their release. Containing some of the very last remaining aged whisky in Bladnoch’s warehouse, this exclusive Whisky Club Release has been made by carefully combining first-fill American Oak and first-fill ex-Oloroso Sherry cask matured whisky.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBladnoch’s spirit is the typical Lowland style of fruity, floral and grassy notes with a creamy mouthfeel, and the perfect base to add the sweet vanilla, honey and light spice of American oak casks. Once Nick had selected these casks, he added a similar amount of whisky matured exclusively in 500L Sherry butts. Not only do they bring the dried fruits, nuts and soft oak you’d expect, but most importantly they stretch the palate out, resulting in a tantalisingly luscious malt masterclass of \u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ef\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ereshly baked banana bread,\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ecreamed honey\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003echocolate-dipped strawberrie\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003es\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e and\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e homemade blackberry jam\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e.

It’s only due to our very special relationship with the distillery that this never-to-be-repeated limited-edition sequel was even possible, especially at the special Member price of just $135.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bladnoch Distillery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46489940590671,"sku":"WC0200","price":135.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/1185\/7487\/files\/bladnoch2007_pdp_main.png?v=1787701162","url":"https:\/\/thewhiskyclub.com.au\/products\/bladnoch-2007-vintage-exclusive-release","provider":"The Whisky Club AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
