  • Daftmill 2006 Winter Batch Release Lowland single malt bottle
    Item no.: 22280-6709

    They only distil when the fields can spare the people. The winter batch comes after harvest, when the grain is in and there is time to fire up — and it tastes different from the summer one.

    Expert description

    Daftmill 2006/2018 Winter Batch Release is a Lowland Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in five first fill ex-bourbon casks and bottled at 46%.

    The whisky was distilled on 16 December 2006 and bottled twelve years later in 2018, in an outturn of 1,265 bottles. Daftmill splits its releases into summer and winter batches because the distillery only runs in the periods when the farm work allows. Winter spirit is generally reckoned to be slightly fuller than summer spirit, because cooler water and lower temperatures change the way the spirit condenses.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Warm and baked. Rhubarb compote, honey, citrus and pancakes with maple syrup. After a while in the glass, fresh pears and crisp apples appear.

    Palate

    Round and silky with shades of vanilla, almond and citrus, accompanied by a lightly waxy texture.

    Finish

    Long and spiced with hints of nutmeg, wood and sweet stone fruit.

    Investment potential

    High. 1,265 bottles from a distillery where demand consistently outstrips production. Daftmill's early batches have become noticeably harder to find since release.

    Did you know?

    The difference between summer and winter batches is not marketing. Water temperature in the condensers changes with the season, which affects how much copper contact the spirit gets — enough that a winter distillate tastes different from a summer one made in the same plant.

  • Dailuaine 1997 Signatory 24 years Cask Strength Collection bottle
    Item no.: 22227865479-1106-197280002

    Distilled on the same day as its four-year-younger sister, but these casks were left standing. Four extra years in hogsheads sounds like little — in the glass the difference is obvious.

    Expert description

    Dailuaine 1997/2022 Signatory 24 years is a Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in two hogsheads and bottled at 47.4% without chill filtration and without added colouring.

    The casks are numbered 7227 and 7235, were filled on 21 May 1997 and emptied on 20 January 2022. The outturn was 369 bottles. The release belongs to Signatory's Cask Strength Collection, where the whisky goes into bottle at the strength the cask delivers. Dailuaine is one of those distilleries where almost the entire production disappears into blends, and twenty-four year old bottlings exist essentially only through independent bottlers.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Ripe apples, pears and quince, with vanilla, malt and a mild spiced oak behind.

    Palate

    Silky with well-integrated alcohol. Sweetness and freshness first, then vanilla, malt and spiced oak, in a balanced and elegant mouthfeel.

    Finish

    Dry and harmonious, with the complexity and maturity stepping forward at the close.

    Did you know?

    Quince is a fruit you rarely meet in modern whisky, but it turns up in old Speyside malts from bourbon wood. It sits somewhere between apple and pear, and it is often a sign of a cask that has been allowed to work long and quietly.

  • Dallas Dhu 12 years Gordon and MacPhail bottle from closed distillery
    Item no.: B22227865438-64

    Dallas Dhu stopped production in 1983 and was never demolished. The distillery stands today as a museum with all the equipment in place — but without a drop of new spirit since the Thatcher years.

    Expert description

    Dallas Dhu 12 years Gordon & MacPhail is a Highland Malt Scotch Whisky bottled at 40%.

    The distillery sits near Forres and closed in 1983 during the great wave of closures, when overproduction brought a string of Scottish houses to their knees. The buildings were preserved and are run today as a museum, which makes Dallas Dhu one of the few places you can walk through a complete distillery that no longer produces. Gordon & MacPhail in Elgin has bottled whisky from across Scotland since 1895 and is among the most important sources of bottles from closed distilleries.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Soft and malty. Honey, dried apple and cereal, with a dusty note from the years in glass.

    Palate

    Round and light. Malt, honey and pale caramel, with a touch of spice and a mild oak note. The 40% keeps it easy to approach.

    Finish

    Medium and dry, with malt, nuts and a faint herbal warmth.

  • Dalmore 14 years MacKarl limited edition bottle from Ringsted series
    Item no.: 22227865471-305-MK

    A Danish retailer series named after the mayors of Ringsted does not sound like where you find an independent Dalmore. That is nonetheless exactly what is in the bottle.

    Expert description

    Dalmore 14 years MacKarl 1896–1904 Limited Edition is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in an American hogshead and bottled at 46% without chill filtration and without added colouring.

    The whisky was distilled in 2001 and bottled in 2015 for Skjold Burne in Ringsted as part of the Ringsted Whisky series, where each edition is dedicated to a former mayor of the town. This one carries the name MacKarl after Karl Kristian Ludvig Jürgens, mayor from 1896 to 1904. Dalmore on the Cromarty Firth releases almost exclusively official bottlings, so independent bottles from the distillery are rare — and a Danish retailer bottling rarer still.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Ripe fruit and honey first, then vanilla, malt and a warm spiced note from the American oak.

    Palate

    Soft and round. Orange, honey and caramel, with malt and a layer of spice. The 46% gives good weight without turning sharp.

    Finish

    Medium and warm, with vanilla, oak and a mild spiced sweetness.

    Dalmore's twelve-point royal stag comes from Clan Mackenzie. The story goes that the clan founder saved King Alexander III from a charging stag, and in return was permitted to carry the animal on his coat of arms. The distillery has used it ever since.

  • Dalmore 1990 Signatory 17 years sherry butt bottle at cask strength
    Item no.: 505956-689457-8

    Dalmore from an independent bottler is a rare sight. Dalmore from 1990 in a single sherry butt at full cask strength is close to an anomaly.

    Expert description

    Dalmore 1990/2008 Signatory Vintage 17 years is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in a sherry butt and bottled at cask strength of 59.2% without added colouring.

    The cask carries the number 9411, was filled on 11 September 1990 and emptied on 25 March 2008. The outturn was 501 bottles. Dalmore sits at Alness on the shore of the Cromarty Firth and is known for its heavy, sherried house style — which is exactly why a single sherry cask suits the spirit so well. The distillery lets very few casks go on to independent bottlers, making this release unusual.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Deep and dark. Raisin, orange peel and dark chocolate, with walnut, leather and a warm spiced note from the wood.

    Palate

    Massive and concentrated. Dried fruit, cocoa and caramelised sugar, with a peppery warmth from the strength and a dry sherry edge keeping the sweetness in check.

    Finish

    Very long and dry, with nuts, dark fruit and a persistent spiced warmth.

    Dalmore's motto Luceo non uro means shine, not burn. It comes from the Clan Mackenzie coat of arms and has followed the distillery since the family took it over in the nineteenth century — even after the whisky had long since changed owners.

  • Dalmore 18 years 2023 Edition Highland single malt bottle with stag emblem
    Item no.: 2227865479-110999

    González Byass in Jerez has casks that have held Matusalem oloroso for thirty years. Dalmore gets to borrow them — and that arrangement is what the entire house style rests on.

    Expert description

    Dalmore 2023 Edition 18 years is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in American white oak and 30 year old Matusalem oloroso sherry casks and bottled at 43%.

    The distillery sits at Alness on the shore of the Cromarty Firth and has since 1839 worked in a heavy, sherried style. The partnership with the sherry house González Byass gives Dalmore access to oloroso casks that held wine for three decades, and it is those that give the 18 year old its depth. This release is the 2023 version of the standing 18 year old, which is adjusted from year to year.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Deep and inviting. Orange peel, raisin and dark chocolate, with cinnamon, roasted nuts and a warm note of old oak.

    Palate

    Full and silky. Dried fruit, caramel and marzipan, with spice from the sherry cask and a malted core underneath. The 43% carries the sweetness without making it sticky.

    Finish

    Long and warm, with raisin, cocoa and a dry spiced close.

  • Dalmore Castle Leod 1995 Lands of Clan Mackenzie bottle
    Item no.: 22461-25564

    Castle Leod still stands at Strathpeffer and is still the Mackenzie clan home. Dalmore has carried the clan stag on its label for nearly two centuries — here the castle gets a bottle of its own.

    Expert description

    Dalmore Castle Leod 1995 Vintage is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in American white oak and Spanish sherry oak with a final finish in 1er Cru Classé Bordeaux casks and bottled at 46%.

    The whisky was distilled in 1995 and bottled in 2011 in an outturn of 5,000 bottles. It belongs to the Lands of Clan Mackenzie series, where each release is tied to a place in the clan's history. Castle Leod at Strathpeffer is the clan seat and lies a few kilometres from the distillery. The Bordeaux finish is unusual for Dalmore and lays a dry fruit acidity over the usual house sherry sweetness.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Rich and inviting. Dark fruits, orange peel, honey and caramel, accompanied by warm spices, chocolate and a touch of roasted nuts.

    Palate

    Full and silky. Raisins, prunes and ripe fruit melt together with vanilla, spices and dark cocoa, while the oak contributes structure and depth.

  • Dalmore Cigar Malt Reserve Highland single malt bottle in dark design
    Item no.: 22227865461-2

    There are not many whiskies built to be drunk alongside something else. Cigar Malt is one of them — made to hold its ground against the smoke of a cigar.

    Expert description

    Dalmore Cigar Malt Reserve is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky bottled at 44%.

    The whisky is assembled from selected casks aged roughly ten to fifteen years and is deliberately bottled a little stronger than the rest of the house range. The point is that it should stand up to the weight of tobacco without disappearing. This release is Version No. 2 of Cigar Malt, which Dalmore revived after a pause. The distillery at Alness has worked with sherry casks since the nineteenth century, and it is that same dark, concentrated style underneath.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Powerful and dark. Raisin, orange marmalade and dark chocolate, with cinnamon, clove and a warm note of tobacco and leather.

    Palate

    Full and dense. Dried fruit, caramel and spice, with an oily texture and a dry oak edge. The 44% gives extra weight compared with the house 40% releases.

    Cromartie is the name of the earldom the Mackenzie clan received from the crown. Third bottle in the series, third place on the map — and the whisky gets darker with each release.

    Expert description

    Dalmore Cromartie 1996 Vintage is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in American white oak with a final maturation in oloroso sherry casks and bottled at 45%.

    The whisky was distilled in 1996 and is the third release in the Clan Mackenzie Series, where the clan's twelve-point stag appears on every bottle. The combination of American oak first and oloroso at the end is the classic house recipe, and the 45% gives more weight than most of Dalmore's standing releases. The series is limited and ties each bottling to a place or title in the clan's history.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Rich and inviting. Dried fruits, orange peel, dark chocolate and caramel, accompanied by warm spices and a touch of roasted nuts.

    Palate

  • Dalmore King Alexander III Highland single malt bottle with stag
    Item no.: 22227865461-203

    Six cask types in one bottle. Not because it reads well on a label, but because Dalmore wanted to see how many layers you can put into a whisky before it falls apart.

    Expert description

    Dalmore King Alexander III is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in six different cask types and bottled at 40%.

    The whisky brings together components from bourbon casks, oloroso sherry casks, Madeira casks, Marsala casks, port pipes and Cabernet Sauvignon casks. When it appeared it was the first single malt built on that many different cask types. The name refers to King Alexander III, who according to legend was saved from a charging stag by an ancestor of Clan Mackenzie — and in gratitude granted the clan the right to carry the animal on its arms. It is the same stag that appears on every Dalmore bottle today.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Layered and sweet. Red fruit, orange and vanilla first, then raisin, marzipan and a warm spiced note from the port and Madeira.

    Palate

    Soft and round. Passion fruit, citrus and caramel meet dried fruit, chocolate and spice, while the many cask types settle in layers rather than colliding.

    Finish

    Long and soft, with fruit, spice and a lightly dry oak note.

    Marrying six cask types sounds simple but requires each component to mature separately and only be brought together at the end. The distilling team at Dalmore therefore has to hit the balance in six directions at once — and do it again on the next batch.

    Item no.: 22227865461-61

    Seventeen years is an awkward number for a whisky. It was chosen because the casks were ready — not because anyone thought it looked good on a label.

    Expert description

    Deanston 17 years Old Version is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky bottled at 40%.

    The release predates Deanston moving its core range to 46.3% without chill filtration and without added colouring. Seventeen years in cask is uncommon even today, and when this was bottled it was among the house's oldest releases. Deanston has distilled since the mid-1960s in a converted cotton mill by the River Teith, and the long maturations show a different side from the core range.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Mature and restrained. Honey, dried apple and malt, with vanilla, nuts and a dusty note from the years in glass.

    Palate

    Soft and round. Malt, honey and candied fruit, with a warm spiced middle. At 40% it is light, but the seventeen years have given a depth the strength cannot hide.

    Deanston is one of the few Scottish distilleries that uses no peat at all. All the malt is unpeated, and the smoke simply does not exist in the house — which is why long maturation here is about fruit and nuts rather than burning off smoke.

    Item no.: 222331-2055

    Third batch of the 18 year old, bottled before Deanston changed the packaging. Same whisky, different wardrobe — and that is exactly the kind of detail collectors watch.

    Expert description

    Deanston 18 years Batch 3 Old Version is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in American bourbon casks and bottled at 46.3% without chill filtration and without added colouring.

    The long maturation in American oak gives the whisky natural colour, rich texture and a balanced sweetness. Deanston uses Scottish barley, long fermentation and classic pot stills, and the house has occupied a converted cotton mill by the River Teith since 1966. Batch 3 is a limited release from before the current bottle design, which makes it easy to tell apart from today's 18 year old.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Honey from wildflowers, creamy vanilla and floral notes, followed by citrus and mild spice.

    Palate

    Sweetness and warmth in interplay. Barley sugar, lemon confection, ginger cake and deep Manuka honey, with a rich, waxy texture.

    Finish

    Long and dry with clear ginger, light oak and a soft honeyed warmth.

    Batch numbers are the whisky world's answer to edition numbers. Even when the recipe is the same, the casks vary from batch to batch — so batch 3 does not necessarily taste like batch 6, however alike the labels look.

    Item no.: 22227865461-205

    Rich local barley, canny local knowledge, soft water from the River Teith and first fill bourbon casks. And then time. A great deal of time.

    Expert description

    Deanston 18 years is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in first fill bourbon casks and bottled at 46.3% without chill filtration and without added colouring.

    First fill casks are the ones taking Scotch for the first time after bourbon. The wood is still active and gives vanilla, coconut and a clear sweetness — over eighteen years that becomes a deep, honeyed character without the oak taking over. It is the house signature, sweet honeyed fruit with a long swell, pushed as far as it goes. Deanston has distilled in a converted cotton mill at Doune since 1966.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Deep honey and ripe fruit. Baked apple, vanilla and coconut, with a light floral note and malted cereal underneath.

    Palate

    Full and creamy. Honey, vanilla fudge and ripe fruit, with spice from the oak and a waxy mouthfeel that the absence of filtration preserves.

    Finish

    Long and warm, with honey, malt and a soft oak spice fading slowly.

    A bourbon cask may only be used once in the United States. That is why thousands of used casks sail to Scotland every year to begin a second — and often third and fourth — life. Without that American rule, Scotch whisky would look completely different.

    Item no.: 22227865391-8846-0522

    Sixty-six point eight percent after thirteen years. The cask has barely given up any alcohol along the way — and there is a very concrete reason for that.

    Expert description

    Deanston 2008/2022 Signatory Vintage 13 years is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in a first fill sherry butt and bottled at cask strength of 66.8% without chill filtration and without added colouring.

    The cask is numbered 900076, was filled on 13 August 2008 and emptied on 11 March 2022 with an outturn of 574 bottles. The release belongs to Signatory's Cask Strength Collection. A strength that high after thirteen years means the cask lost more water than alcohol — which happens in dry, airy warehouses rather than in damp earth-floored cellars.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Dense and dark. Raisin, date and orange marmalade, with dark chocolate, nuts and a warm spiced note.

    Palate

    Fierce but well balanced. Dried fruit, cocoa and burnt sugar, with a dry sherry edge and a peppery warmth. Deanston's honey sits underneath and keeps the sweetness natural.

    Finish

    Very long, dry and spiced, with dark fruit, nuts and a slowly fading warmth.

    Did you know?

    Whether a whisky rises or falls in strength during maturation depends on the humidity in the warehouse. Where it is dry, water evaporates fastest and the strength climbs. Where it is damp, the alcohol goes first — which is why two casks filled the same day can end up in very different places.

    Item no.: 22227865479-1106-197280146

    Twenty year old Deanston is not something the distillery sells itself. That Boutique-Y Whisky Company found the casks, drew a story on the label and put it in a half bottle.

    Expert description

    Deanston That Boutique-Y Whisky Company 20 years is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky bottled at 49.1% in a 50 cl bottle.

    This is the house's batch 7 from Deanston and gave 450 bottles. That Boutique-Y Whisky Company was founded in 2012 by Ben Ellefsen and is known for its hand-drawn labels, where every bottle gets its own illustration. Deanston itself rarely releases whisky over eighteen years, and twenty years in cask shows a side of the house the core range never reaches.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Marmalade first, developing into barley, vanilla, caramel, milk chocolate and a little coconut.

    Palate

    Fresh notes of ripe plums combined with mint leaves, with honey and malt underneath. The 49.1% gives good weight without drowning the finer notes.

    Finish

    Long and soft, with caramel, malt and a mild spiced warmth.

  • Douglas Laing 70th Anniversary bottle with hand signed anniversary label, Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky
    Item no.: 22337555-79632

    Some whiskies you can simply go out and buy. Others required you to be standing in a particular room on a particular evening. Douglas Laing turned 70 in 2018, and for the celebration a single sherry butt was emptied. Seventy bottles. Every one of them signed by hand.

    The Expert's Description

    Douglas Laing 70th Anniversary 20 Years Old is a Single Speyside Malt Scotch Whisky matured in a single Sherry Butt and bottled at 52%. It was created for the importers and staff who attended the company’s 70th anniversary celebration, never reached a retail shelf, and that alone explains a great deal about how few exist.

    The Speyside distillery behind the whisky is undisclosed. That is standard practice when Douglas Laing bottles single casks sourced from distilleries that will not lend their name, and it is why the label reads Single Speyside Malt rather than a distillery name. The style, however, is unmistakable. Twenty years in Spanish sherry oak has pushed dark fruit and depth into the spirit without flattening Speyside's brighter malt sweetness. The cask yielded 70 bottles, hand filled and numbered, each label carrying the signatures of both Fred and Cara Laing.

    Douglas Laing has been bottling whisky since 1948 and the firm remains in the family's hands. The 70th Anniversary was their own birthday present to themselves, and one of the rarest pieces of whisky history the family has ever released.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Dark ripe fruit leads: prunes, figs and long-steeped raisins. Behind that sit honey, orange peel and a dry nuttiness from the sherry oak. Give the glass fifteen minutes and vanilla arrives, along with a whisper of old leather.

    Palate

    Full and close to oily. Caramel and baked apple meet cinnamon and a touch of clove, with oak tannin keeping the sweetness on a short leash. The 52% reads as warmth rather than heat. A few drops of water do not break it apart, they round it out.

    Finish

    Long and dry. Dark chocolate, pipe tobacco and a nutty bitterness that hangs around well after the last sip. Right at the end the honey comes back.

    Investment Potential

    High. One cask, 70 bottles, never released for general sale and signed by the family behind the firm. That combination makes the bottle genuinely hard to track down, and it has climbed considerably in value since 2018.

    Did You Know?

    Douglas Laing was founded in 1948 by Fred Douglas Laing. That year Scotch was still rationed after the war, and most of the whisky bottled in Scotland was shipped abroad to earn foreign currency for the British Treasury. The firm was born into a market where whisky was treated almost as a trading commodity, on a par with coal.

  • Dumbarton 1987/2003 Cadenheads 15 years old Authentic Collection Single Lowland Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 58,1%
    Item no.: 505956-807534-717

    Dumbarton 1987/2003 Cadenhead's Authentic Collection 15 Years Single Lowland Malt Scotch Whisky

    A red‑brick giant at the meeting of the Leven and Clyde, once home to whisky on a scale few distilleries could match — and guarded by a flock of Chinese geese. That’s the origin of this dram: a rarity from a place that no longer exists.

    This is a bottle for the collector who chases the lost. Dumbarton was primarily a massive grain distillery, built in 1938 by Hiram Walker to supply the Ballantine’s blend. But inside the same complex stood a small malt distillery called Inverleven, and it is that malt spirit you find in this bottle. Cadenhead’s — Scotland’s oldest independent bottler, founded in 1842 — chose to label it “Dumbarton” rather than Inverleven, something worth knowing if you search for it in databases or at auction.

    It was distilled in 1987 and bottled in March 2003 after 15 years in a single bourbon hogshead. Only 294 bottles came from the cask. The whisky is part of Cadenhead’s Authentic Collection — their series of single‑cask releases, un‑chillfiltered, natural colour, and bottled at full cask strength. This is whisky in its most unfiltered form, and at 58.1% it makes itself known. The Inverleven stills fell silent forever in 1991, and the Dumbarton complex closed in 2002 before being demolished. The stills were moved to Islay, where they now serve Bruichladdich and The Botanist gin. There will be no more whisky like this.

    A classic Lowlander in character — light, fresh and grassy rather than heavy or smoky.

    Nose: Grassy and fresh, like sitting by a roadside ditch on a summer day. Plenty of citrus and bright fruit.
    Palate: Dry and spicy with the warmth of full cask strength. A sweet core beneath the sharpness, with grain and pale fruit.
    Finish: Medium length, clean and citrus‑driven. The warmth fades slowly.

    Investment potential: Medium. A closed and demolished distillery, single cask, only 294 bottles, and a respected bottler — all factors that push value upward. But Inverleven/Dumbarton does not have the same cult following as the big names, so price growth is driven more by rarity than hype. A bottle that typically trades above its original retail price, but without dramatic spikes.

    Did you know? Dumbarton had its own security force: around 100 Chinese geese, introduced in 1959 to guard the warehouses. They became so famous they appeared in Ballantine’s adverts. When the distillery closed, the last seven geese were retired and sent to Glasgow Green.

    This rare Dumbarton 23-year-old Single Grain whisky from Dram Mor represents the best of the Lowland region's grain whisky tradition. The Dumbarton distillery, which closed in 2002, was known for its high-quality grain whisky, often used in blends – but here, it is presented as an exclusive single grain in all its glory.

    The whisky is bottled at cask strength of 57.1%, delivering an intense and authentic tasting experience without unnecessary dilution.

    Tasting profile:
    Nose: Creamy vanilla with a hint of cherry pie and sweet, buttery shortcrust pastry.
    Palate: Sweet and buttery with an impressive three-dimensional depth for a single grain. Delicate spices bind the flavor together, creating a harmonious balance.
    Finish: Warming and more robust than expected – but in the best possible way.

    Item no.: 222288877-88874

    1999 was a year when Edradour distilled whisky that, 21 years later, would meet Italian Barolo wine — the result is a discontinued rarity many collectors seek out.

    The expert's description

    Edradour 1999 Vintage Barolo Cask Finish 21 years old is a Single Highland Malt Whisky finished in Barolo casks and bottled at 54.8%.

    The whisky was distilled on 9 August 1999 and, after a long primary maturation, received a finishing period in casks that previously held Barolo, a powerful Italian red wine from Piedmont made from Nebbiolo grapes. The whisky was bottled on 21 October 2020 after 21 years of total maturation and is today a discontinued vintage release.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Dried cherries and rose petals, with a tannic undercurrent of tar and a hint of fresh malt.

    Palate

    Dark berries and a lightly bitter tannic grip, where the malt keeps a soft, honeyed base beneath the wine's intensity.

    Finish

    Long with dry tannins, black pepper and a finish of dark cherries and leather.

    Bordeaux casks are used more rarely for whisky finishing than sherry and port, because French wine casks are traditionally sold on for other purposes rather than ending up with Scottish distilleries — making this cask type a genuine rarity in Scotch whisky.

    Symington's Choice is Signatory Vintage's way of celebrating the very best casks — single casks so good they deserve their own name on the label.

    Edradour 2000/2024 Symington's Choice 23 years old is a Single Highland Malt Scotch Whisky matured in a 1st fill Oloroso sherry butt and bottled at 56.2%.

    The whisky was distilled on 17 November 2000 and matured for 23 years in a single 1st fill Oloroso sherry butt, cask #3151, before being bottled by Signatory Vintage on 29 April 2024. Only 656 bottles were drawn, and each bottle is individually numbered as part of the prestigious Symington's Choice series, which gathers some of the finest single casks from Signatory's warehouse.

    Tasting notes

    Dark chocolate, dried fig and walnut, with a deep, sherry-dark sweetness and a hint of old oak.

    Investment potential

    This release is assessed to have high investment potential, largely due to single cask status, 23 years of maturation and only 656 bottles in Signatory Vintage's prestigious Symington's Choice series. This is a general assessment based on available information about rarity and demand, not a guarantee of future value growth.

    There's a quiet confidence to a whisky that's been allowed to rest for 21 years in a single sherry cask. No rush, no shortcuts — just time and good wood.

    The expert's description

    Edradour 2001/2023 Oloroso Sherry Butt 21 years old is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in a refill ex-bourbon hogshead and Oloroso sherry butt and bottled at 52.1%.

    The whisky was distilled in 2001 and matured for 21 years, split across cask no. 2413, 2414 and 2504, before being bottled in July 2023. The Oloroso sherry has given the whisky a deep, reddish-brown colour and a rich, nutty sweetness that balances Edradour's light, unpeated character. With 1,919 bottles, this is one of the rarer releases from the distillery's core range.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Raisins, walnut and a hint of orange peel sit over a soft malt aroma, with a deep, sherry-dark sweetness underneath.

    Palate

    Rich and rounded with dried apricot, dark chocolate and a lightly spiced oak. The sherry gives the whisky body without ever drowning out the malt's character.

    Finish

    Long and warm with lingering notes of dark caramel, walnut shell and a dry, elegant finish.

    Item no.: 059763-615-160-1

    Some of Edradour's finest moments come when the distillery keeps it simple: good grain, good casks and plenty of time. This 21-year-old bourbon cask maturation is one of them.

    The expert's description

    Edradour 2003/2024 Bourbon Barrel 21 years old is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in bourbon barrels and bottled at 54.3%.

    The whisky was distilled in 2003 and matured for 21 years across seven selected bourbon casks, numbers 67 to 73, before being bottled in 2024. The long maturation in American oak has given the whisky a warm, vanilla-led sweetness, while Edradour's light, floral core character is preserved throughout. 1,126 bottles were drawn from this maturation.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Vanilla, honey and ripe pears, with a lightly nutty undercurrent and a hint of fresh oak.

    Palate

    Soft and rounded with caramel, toasted almonds and a fine acidity from tropical fruit that keeps the palate fresh despite the age.

    Finish

    Medium length with lingering vanilla, lightly spiced oak and a dry, elegant finish.

  • Bottle of Edradour 25 yo Batch No. 1 Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky
    Item no.: 059763-615-728

    25 years is a long time for a single malt — long enough that a whisky either loses itself in the oak or finds its most complete form. Batch No. 1 is a case for the latter.

    The expert's description

    Edradour 25 years old Batch No. 1 is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in 1st fill sherry butts and bottled at 54.6%.

    As the first batch in this 25-year-old series, the whisky represents the culmination of Edradour's long sherry maturation style. The entire maturation period took place in 1st fill sherry butts, giving the whisky a deep, dark colour and a rich, complex flavour profile with layers of dried fruit and spice that only come with time. Throughout its long history, the distillery has survived both good times and bad — from the early heyday of blended Scotch to periods of shifting ownership — and is today back in independent Scottish hands under Signatory Vintage.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Dark chocolate, raisin and toasted walnut, with a deep, sherry-dark sweetness and a hint of old oak.

    Palate

    Full-bodied and complex with fig, date and a warm spiciness of clove and cinnamon, held up by a firm, well-established malt.

    Finish

    Very long with lingering dark fruit, leather and a dry, elegant finish.

    Item no.: 22227865459-12

    The second release in Ballechin's Madeira Cask number series once again brings sun-warmed cask sweetness together with the distillery's signature peat.

    The expert's description

    Edradour Ballechin # 2 Madeira Cask is a Single Highland Malt Whisky matured in a Madeira cask and bottled at 46%.

    This release is number two in Ballechin's ongoing series of Madeira cask maturations and continues the line from earlier releases in the style. The Madeira cask's warm, lightly oxidised sweetness sits over Ballechin's earthy peat smoke and creates an approachable, yet still characterful whisky at a moderate strength of 46%.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Dried apricot and caramel, with a lightly earthy smoke and a hint of honey.

    Palate

    Sweet and rounded with raisin and toasted nuts, before a gentle, warm smoke emerges.

    Finish

    Medium length with lingering smoke and a dry, lightly sweet finish.

    Item no.: 059755-7756

    In a green Perthshire valley, Edradour's tiny copper stills have been distilling whisky since 1825. But there's another, smokier side to this quiet farm distillery. Ballechin takes its name from a neighbouring distillery that closed nearly a century ago, and the name now lives on in these heavily peated bottlings.

    The expert's description

    Edradour Ballechin 13 years old SFTC 2004/2018 is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in a port cask and bottled at 53.3%.

    The whisky belongs to the Straight From The Cask series, where every bottling comes from a single cask with no filtration and no added colour. This particular release was distilled in April 2004 and matured for 13 years in cask no. 199, a port cask that has given the whisky a deep reddish-brown hue and a wine-like sweetness that meets Ballechin's signature peat smoke head-on. The series has long been discontinued, and only 396 bottles were drawn from this one cask.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Red berries and dark chocolate arrive first, quickly followed by pecans and damp oak. The port cask lends a sweet, almost wine-like depth that melts into a heavy, earthy peat smoke.

    Palate

    Strawberries and dark brown sugar sit in layers over the peat, which is present without ever taking over. Spiced oak, caramel and a touch of dried herbs round things off.

    Finish

    Long and lingering, with flamed orange peel, dark smoke and black pepper, closing on warm spice and a sweetness that takes its time to fade.

    Edradour Ballechin 15 years old SBCS 2022 1st Release is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in bourbon and sherry casks and bottled at 58.9%.

    SBCS stands for Small Batch Cask Strength, and this 1st Release is the first bottling in the peated arm of the series.

    Nose

    Smoked caramel and ripe plums, with a hint of the sherry's nutty depth and a touch of fresh tar.

    Palate

    Finish

    Long and spicy with lingering smoke, dried figs and a dry, faintly gripping finish.
