About Annandale Distillery
Located in Annan, Dumfries and Galloway, Annandale distillery produces single malt Scotch whisky. Established in 1836 by George Donald, it was later acquired by Johnnie Walker in 1893 before closing in 1924.
In 2007, the distillery was purchased by the Annandale Distillery Company, owned by David Thomson and Teresa Church, receiving a grant in 2008 for a significant investment. After the opening of the Annandale Visitor Centre in November 2014, production resumed, with the first casks making headlines. In November 2017, the first cask was opened by the owners. Releases include the Man O’ Words and Man O’ Sword single malt whiskies, paying homage to Robert Burns and King Robert The Bruce, respectively. The distillery has received accolades, including Jim Murray’s Best Single Cask Single Malt awards.

Annandale Whisky Cask Ownership - The Facts
Annandale is a renowned distillery located in Scotland with a rich heritage in producing fine whiskies. The rarity and quality of their products makes them desirable to collectors and enthusiasts, only increasing their value over time.
Whisky typically gains value as it ages and matures in the cask. The longer it remains in the cask, the more it has the potential to develop complexity and depth of flavors. We offer cask purchase programs that allow you to select the type of cask and aging duration, providing you with control over the maturation process.
Buying a cask allows you to own a unique piece of Bladnoch’s Kirkcowan Spirit production and a part of Bladnoch’s history. As the availability of aged and limited-edition whiskies decreases over time, the scarcity of these bottles can drive up their value.
Whisky has experienced growing popularity worldwide, particularly with the rise of collectors and investors seeking alternative assets. If the demand for premium Scotch whisky remains strong or continues to increase, it could positively impact the investment potential of your Kirkcowan Spirit (Bladnoch) cask. Recently we have seen the price of a standard bottle of Bladnoch rise from £40 to £80.
