The most southerly distillery in Scotland is located on the banks of the river Bladnoch, for which it is named. A turbulent 20th century led to it being closed and dismantled in 1993, but was restored and reopened in 2000 by an investor sympathetic to the local community. Trade agreements restrict the permitted output of the distillery, making even modern bottlings fairly rare and sought after.
