This single grain whisky was distilled in 1991 at the Cambus Distillery before being placed in a refill Butt and left to mature for no less than 30 years. It was bottled in 2022 at 51.5% ABV as part of the Signatory Vintage Cask Strength Collection.
Single Grain Whisky is becoming more and more popular as heavily aged single malts become harder and more expensive to get a hold of. This one is perhaps one of the most light and elegant we have tried, with shortbread and jam on the nose, all the way through to the finish.
Only 258 Bottles Release.
Tasting Notes:
Nose: Fresh vanilla jam cakes, butter and gingerbread.
Palate: Dried fruits and chocolate, vanilla cake with butterscotch cream and a hint of pepper.
Finish: Buttered Scones and vanila bean.
Signatory Vintage are an independent bottler founded in 1988 by Andrew and Brian Symington. The name ‘Signatory’ was derived from the initial intention to find a person of suitable standing to sign the labels for bottles drawn from a single cask. The first cask bottled was a 1968 Glenlivet which quickly sold through long before any suitable signee could be found.
Signatory currently bottle at three strengths: 43%, 46% Unchillfiltered (UCF) and Cask Strength.To add proof of authenticity to their cask strength bottlings, Signatory always include the cask numbers, date of distillation, date of bottling and number of bottles produced.Signatory Vintage’s aim is to offer as wide a range of whiskies as possible, some of which are not even bottled by the proprietary distillery. This allows malt enthusiast to sample the huge variety of subtle differences which occur between casks.
