  Blair Athol 2011/2023 Signatory Vintage 11 years old Single Highland Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 46%

  Item no.: 22227865480-67093-0157

  Four casks, the same day at the distillery, the same treatment. Signatory shaved off the old layer of wood and toasted the casks again — and the whisky has had eleven years to get used to it.

  Please note: There is wear and rust on the cap.

  Expert description

  Blair Athol 2011/2023 Signatory Vintage 11 Years is a Single Highland Malt Scotch Whisky from four Dechar/Rechar Hogsheads, bottled at 46% without chill filtration and without added colour.

  The whisky was distilled on 30 September 2011 and bottled in January 2023. Casks #306899, #306905, #306911 and #306913 all went through the same treatment, where the innermost layer of wood is planed away and the cask charred anew. The method recharges a used cask and returns vanilla, caramel and pale spice.

  Blair Athol's spirit is heavy and malty, and the re-charred casks add sweetness without laying sherry or wine over it. The result is a clean reading of the distillery's own style.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Vanilla and baked apple with malted grain, cinnamon and a lightly toasted note.

  Palate

  Malt and caramel with pale oak, honey and a stroke of white pepper. The texture is full for 46%.

  Finish

  Medium and dry with grain, vanilla and a toasted oak note.

  Dechar/rechar means planing the charred layer from the inside of a used cask and burning it again. The cask then behaves almost like new, but without delivering the same fierce tannin.

  Blair Athol 2011/2025 Signatory Vintage 13 year old Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 57,7%

  Item no.: 05955-88963

  Ruby port is the youngest and most fruit-driven of the ports, and a cask that has held it gives colour straight away. Here it has spent thirteen years with a Highland spirit built to take it.

  Expert description

  Blair Athol 2011/2025 Signatory Vintage 13 Years is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky from a First Fill Ruby Port Hogshead, bottled at cask strength, 57.7%, without chill filtration and without added colour.

  The release belongs to Signatory Vintage's Cask Strength Collection and comes from a single cask. First fill port casks are forceful and give colour, acidity and dark fruit, which can overwhelm a light spirit — but Blair Athol's heavy, malty style has the weight to stand its ground.

  Full maturation in a port cask combined with a high bottling strength gives a whisky with clear vinous character and a velvet texture, where sweetness and spice pull in opposite directions.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Black cherries and fruit preserve with hazelnut caramel and a hint of ginger.

  Palate

  Full and sweet with port-soaked sponge cake, strawberry jam, candied orange peel and dark chocolate.

  Finish

  Long and warm with dark berries, spice and a dry, chocolatey close.

  Did you know?

  Port casks for whisky are rarer than you might think. Port is traditionally aged in very large vessels used over and over, and the smaller casks the whisky industry can use are often made for the purpose.

  Bowmore 1997/2023 Symingtons Choice 25 years old Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 55,9%

  Item no.: 22227865480-67093-0210

  An Oloroso sherry butt that waited 25 years. Distilled in 1997, bottled in 2023 — and somewhere in between, Bowmore's peat and coastline merged with the cask's dark fruit in a way that simply cannot be planned.

  Expert's description

  Bowmore 1997/2023 Symingtons Choice 25 Year is an Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky bottled as a Single Cask from an Oloroso Sherry Butt at 55.9%. Signatory Vintage released the Symingtons Choice series in 2023 as a tribute to founder Andrew Symington — a collection of carefully selected, aged single casks from Scotland's finest distilleries. This Bowmore from 1997 was drawn from cask no. 2422, a first-fill Oloroso sherry butt, at full cask strength. Distilled on 23 September 1997 and bottled on 9 February 2023 — exactly 25 years in cask. During that time, the sherry and the whisky's maritime DNA slowly found one another: dark fruit and smoke, sea air and oak. Non-chill filtered, natural colour. Bottle 427 of 616.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Rich and warming. Dried plums, dark orange marmalade and fig. Behind it, Bowmore's characteristic sea salt and restrained smoke — now wrapped in sherry depth and beeswax.

  Taste

  Full and concentrated. Figs, dark chocolate and orange peel. The peat is present but gentle — a background note rather than the main event. Oak tannins give structure.

  Finish

  Very long and complex. Dried fruits, spice and lingering coastal smokiness. Dark chocolate and leather develop slowly as the glass empties.

  Braes of Glenlivet 1979/1995 Signatory Vintage 15 years old Single Malt Scotch Whisky 43%

  Item no.: 505956-807534-795

  Some distilleries never become household names on the shelf. They work quietly, supply malt for other people's blends, and only rarely let a single bottle out on its own. Braes of Glenlivet is one of them.

  Expert Description

  Braes of Glenlivet 1979/1995 Signatory Vintage 15 Year Old is a Single Malt Scotch Whisky, matured in sherry casks and bottled at 43%.

  The whisky comes from the Braes of Glenlivet distillery, today known as Braeval, rarely seen bottled as a single malt since most of its production traditionally goes into blends. This release was distilled on 6 June 1979 and bottled by the independent bottler Signatory Vintage in May 1995 from two sherry casks (cask no. 16042 and 16043), after 15 years of maturation. Only 1,200 bottles were released in Signatory Vintage's classic dumpy bottle, making it a sought-after collector's item from a distillery rarely seen in this form.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Dark amber with a reddish tint, and an aroma of roasted nuts, dark berries, raisins, leather and old orange peel, in a complex and harmonious sherry nose with a hint of tobacco and herbs.

  Palate

  Soft and full with dates, raisins, old oak and black pepper, carried by leather, a light sulphur note, tobacco, menthol and a touch of liquorice.

  Finish

  Long and warm with dark fruit and a lingering sherry character.

  Flavour Profile

  Investment Potential

  High. Braes of Glenlivet, today Braeval, is very rarely bottled as a single malt, and a vintage bottling from 1979 with only 1,200 bottles is exactly the kind of release that rises sharply in demand among collectors of closed or rarely seen distilleries.

  Did You Know?

  Braes of Glenlivet officially changed its name to Braeval in 1994, precisely to avoid confusion with The Glenlivet, yet bottles like this one, released before the name change had fully taken hold, still carry the original name.

  Braeval 2000/2021 Signatory Vintage 21 years old Single Speyside Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 59.2%

  Item no.: 22227865479-1106-197279999

  Twenty-one years in a refill sherry butt does not sound like much on paper. But a used cask works slowly, and when it finally lands, it is the distillery you taste — not the wood.

  Expert description

  Braeval 2000/2021 Signatory Vintage 21 Years is a Single Speyside Malt Scotch Whisky from Refill Sherry Butt #6392, bottled at cask strength, 59.2%, with natural colour.

  The whisky was distilled on 16 February 2000 and bottled on 13 August 2021. The cask gave 592 bottles, which fits a butt of around 500 litres, and the whole run comes from the same day's production at Braeval.

  A refill cask has already given most of its sherry character to an earlier filling. The whisky therefore does not turn dark and heavy but keeps Braeval's light, floral style with a quiet sherry note underneath.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Baked apple and heather with a layer of dried apricot, almond and pale oak.

  Palate

  Concentrated and malty with honey, nuts and a fine fruit acidity. The alcohol is high, but the fruit keeps pace.

  Finish

  Long and dry with nuts, grain and a last sweetness from the sherry cask.

  Braeval 2000/2021 Signatory Vintage 21 years old Single Speyside Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 60,3%

  Item no.: 22227865480-67093-0075

  Two casks, filled on the same day, with numbers running back to back. They are still not the same — this one held on to an extra percent and carries a different edge on the palate.

  Expert description

  Braeval 2000/2021 Signatory Vintage 21 Years is a Single Speyside Malt Scotch Whisky from Refill Butt #6393, bottled at cask strength, 60.3%, with natural colour.

  Distilled on 16 February 2000 and bottled on 18 February 2021, twenty-one years later almost to the day. The cask gave 591 bottles, and the whisky is bottled without dilution and without added colour.

  Braeval sits high in the Braes of Glenlivet and supplies almost entirely to blends. The spirit is light and floral, and a quiet refill cask lets exactly that character show rather than wrapping it in sherry.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Green apple and hay with lemon marmalade, pale oak and a stroke of almond.

  Palate

  Sharp and fresh with green fruit, honey and grain. The 60.3% brings a dry intensity that calls for water.

  Finish

  Long and dry with oak, grain and a lightly bitter citrus note.

  Braeval 2000/2023 Signatory Vintage 23 Year Old Single Speyside Malt Scotch Whisky 60.4%

  Item no.: 5055335-8856

  The last of three sister casks from the same February day in 2000. This one was left two years longer than the others, and the difference shows: more spice, more depth, less hurry.

  Expert description

  Braeval 2000/2023 Signatory Vintage 23 Years is a Single Speyside Malt Scotch Whisky from Refill Oloroso Sherry Butt #6391, bottled at cask strength, 60.4%, without chill filtration and without added colour.

  The whisky was distilled on 16 February 2000 and bottled on 3 April 2023 as part of Signatory Vintage's Cask Strength Collection. The cask gave 603 bottles.

  Braeval, formerly Braes of Glenlivet, sits high in Speyside and is one of those distilleries found almost only in independent bottlings. High age combined with a quiet oloroso cask gives fruity complexity rather than heavy sherry sweetness.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Dried fruit and toffee apples with clove and lime zest on top.

  Palate

  Flower honey and baking spice with dried apricot, walnut and a firm oak core. Powerful, but never coarse.

  Finish

  Long and spiced with nuts, dark honey and a dry, warm close.

  Did you know?

  Oloroso sherry is aged oxidatively, that is, in contact with air, which gives nut and dried fruit rather than fresh grape notes. That is why oloroso casks are the most widely used sherry type for whisky.

  Bunnahabhain 2001/2025 Symingtons Choice 23 year old Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 59,5%

  Item no.: 222233-8853

  Andrew Symington has tasted his way through thousands of casks over the years, and when he puts his own name on a series, it's worth paying attention.

  Expert's Description

  Bunnahabhain 2001/2025 Symington's Choice 23 Years Old is an Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in an oloroso sherry butt and bottled at cask strength, 59.5%.

  Symington's Choice is Signatory Vintage's newer series, named in honour of the founder himself, gathering some of the most richly matured casks from the house's vast stock. This Bunnahabhain was distilled in October 2001 and rested for 23 years on cask #1438, before being bottled straight from the wood in April 2025.

  The long maturation on oloroso sherry has given the whisky a deep, almost mahogany hue, and at 59.5% cask strength, every drop of water you add opens fresh layers in the glass.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Dark chocolate, dried plums and a warm spiciness of nutmeg and cinnamon.

  Palate

  Intense and full with sherry sweetness, walnuts and a wave of warmth that speaks to the cask strength.

  Finish

  Very long, dry and spicy with a final hint of espresso.

  Bunnahabhain 2007/2019 Signatory Vintage 12 years old Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 58.1%

  Item no.: 059763-615-909

  Some casks get left a little longer because whoever is tasting them along the way can't quite let go – or so the story goes with this 12 Years Old from Signatory.

  Expert's Description

  Bunnahabhain 2007/2019 Signatory Vintage 12 Years Old is an Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in a 1st fill sherry butt and bottled at cask strength, 58.1%.

  Signatory Vintage filled this cask, #589, in February 2007 and left it undisturbed for twelve years, before drawing it straight from the wood in October 2019 without reducing the strength. That leaves a whisky with all the power the sherry cask has to offer, and nothing added to soften it.

  587 bottles came from this single cask, and no two are quite alike from first pour to last – that's the nature of a single cask.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Dark sherry, raisins and a rich hint of leather, carried on a warm, spiced note of cloves.

  Palate

  Powerful and concentrated with dried fruit, walnuts and a wave of spiced warmth from the cask strength.

  Finish

  Long, warm and dry with lingering sherry and a touch of bitter chocolate.

  The high strength means the whisky can – and rewards – a few drops of water, which open up the sherry cask's deeper layers.

  Bunnahabhain 2013 Staoisha 11 Years Old Signatory Vintage Oloroso Sherry Butt Single Islay Malt Whisky 46%

  Item no.: 22227865366-845

  Staoisha is the name Bunnahabhain gives its peated spirit, taken from the small loch that supplies the distillery's water – and here it meets a deep sherry sweetness.

  Expert's Description

  Bunnahabhain 2013 Staoisha 11 Years Old Signatory Vintage is a Single Islay Malt Whisky matured in a 1st fill oloroso sherry butt and bottled at 46%.

  The whisky was distilled in 2013 and spent 11 years in a first-fill oloroso sherry cask, which has layered deep notes of dried fruit, spice and chocolate over the peated spirit. Signatory bottled it without chill filtration and without added colour in 2024.

  The bottle belongs to Signatory's Decanter Collection and arrives in a finely cut decanter, underlining that this is something out of the ordinary – both in the glass and on the shelf.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Peat smoke meets dark raisins, dried fig and a touch of mocha.

  Palate

  Rich and full with spiced smoke, sherry sweetness and a core of dark chocolate.

  Finish

  Long and warm with lingering smoke and a final hint of dried fruit.

  Bunnahabhain 2013/2023 Signatory Vintage 9 Years Old is an Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in a 1st fill Pinot Noir red wine butt and bottled at 46%.

  Signatory Vintage has bought casks from distilleries across Scotland since 1988 and bottled them under its own name, without dressing the spirit up as something it isn't. This Bunnahabhain from 2013 was drawn from two casks, #13 and #15, and spent nine years pulling colour and spice from the red wine wood before being bottled in March 2023.

  The base spirit is the distillery's rarer peated make, known as Staoisha, which gives the whisky an extra layer of smoke beneath the wine cask's fruity sweetness – a combination you don't see from Islay every day.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Red berries and a tart wine sweetness meet a faint peaty smoke in the background, tied together by a hint of fresh bread.

  Palate

  Juicy and full with cherry and blackcurrant, sliding into a warm, spiced smoke and a touch of dark chocolate.

  Finish

  Medium length and slightly dry, with the smoke the last thing to fade.

  Caledonian 1987/2018 31 years old Signatory Vintage Single Grain Scotch Whisky 50,2%

  Item no.: 22227865363-8818

  Caledonian sat in the middle of Edinburgh and was in its day the largest grain distillery in Europe. Today there are flats on the site, and the only thing left stands in bottles.

  Expert description

  Caledonian 1987/2018 Signatory Vintage 31 Years is a Single Grain Scotch Whisky bottled at 50.2% without chill filtration and without added colour.

  The whisky was distilled in 1987 and bottled in 2018 in a run of 249 bottles. Caledonian was founded in 1855 in Edinburgh's Dalry district and closed in 1988, which places this spirit among the final production years.

  Grain whisky is rarely matured for three decades, because it is traditionally used young in blends. That is precisely why old grain bottlings have become a category of their own: the light, creamy character develops over time into vanilla, fudge and coconut with a velvet texture.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Vanilla and cream caramel with coconut, ripe pear and a stroke of freshly cut oak.

  Palate

  Silky and creamy with toffee, honey and citrus oil. There is a fine grainy elegance that only long maturation delivers.

  Finish

  Long and warm with fudge, light spice and a pleasant dryness.

  Caledonian was known as the Caley by Edinburgh residents, and its old chimneys were a landmark in the west of the city for decades. Only a single distillery building remains standing today.

  Cambus 1991/2015 Signatory Vintage 23 years old Single Grain Scotch Whisky 70 cl 53,9%

  Item no.: 22227865480-67093-0060

  Filled in July 1991, emptied in January 2015. Cambus managed to close in between, and the cask simply minded its own business while the distillery's chimneys disappeared from the Clackmannanshire skyline.

  Expert description

  Cambus 1991/2015 Signatory Vintage 23 Years is a Single Grain Scotch Whisky from Refill Butt #55890, bottled at cask strength, 53.9%, with natural colour.

  The whisky was distilled on 24 July 1991 and bottled on 19 January 2015. The cask gave 541 bottles, which fits a butt of around 500 litres. Cambus closed in 1993, so the spirit comes from its final production years.

  A refill cask is the right type for grain whisky meant to sit for a long time. It gives up its influence slowly and lets the light spirit develop vanilla, coconut and fudge without being smothered in oak.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Vanilla and coconut with pale grain, met by a fine, sweetish note of freshly baked cake.

  Palate

  Creamy and soft with fudge, honey and pale spice. The strength brings concentration rather than sharpness.

  Finish

  Long and lightly dry with vanilla, grain and a warm oak note.

  Cambus 1991/2023 Signatory Vintage 31 years old Single Grain Scotch Whisky 70 cl 50.5%

  Item no.: 059763-615-149

  Sherry casks and grain whisky are not an obvious pairing — sherry can easily flatten the light spirit. Here a used oloroso butt has had thirty-one years to go about it quietly.

  Expert description

  Cambus 1991/2023 Signatory Vintage 31 Years is a Single Grain Scotch Whisky from Refill Oloroso Butt #104229, bottled at cask strength, 50.5%, without chill filtration and without added colour.

  The whisky was distilled on 3 December 1991 and bottled on 16 January 2023 as part of Signatory Vintage's Cask Strength Collection. The cask gave 330 bottles.

  Cambus closed in 1993, and spirit from 1991 is among the last it made. A refill oloroso butt releases sherry character slowly, and after three decades the nuts and dried fruit are woven into the sweetness of the grain rather than sitting on top of it.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Walnut and raisin with vanilla, orange peel and a stroke of dark honey.

  Palate

  Full and creamy with fudge, dried fig and roasted nuts. The sherry is integrated, not pasted on.

  Finish

  Long and warm with nuts, caramel and a dry, lightly spiced close.

  Did you know?

  Cambus was at the centre of the 1906 What is Whisky case, which established that grain whisky from a column still could legally be called whisky. Without that ruling, blended Scotch would look very different today.

  Cameronbridge 2009/2025 Signatory Vintage 16 year 100 Proof Edition #3 Single Grain Whisky 57,1%

  Item no.: 0597555-411333

  100 proof is an old British measure equal to 57.1 percent. Signatory has turned the number into an entire series, and it is not arbitrary: that is exactly the strength at which gunpowder soaked in spirit would still ignite.

  Expert description

  Cameronbridge 2009/2025 Signatory Vintage 16 Years 100 Proof Edition #3 is a Single Grain Scotch Whisky matured in first fill and second fill Oloroso Sherry Butts and bottled at 57.1% without chill filtration and without added colour.

  The whisky was distilled in 2009 and bottled in 2025. Signatory's 100 Proof series is defined by its fixed bottling strength and by casks selected specifically for it. Combining first and second fill oloroso butts gives both power and balance.

  Cameronbridge is Europe's largest grain distillery and sits in Fife. The distillery's grain whisky is typically described as smooth and approachable, and the sherry matured releases show a darker side than grain is usually associated with.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Butterscotch and maple syrup with a delicate floral elegance on top.

  Palate

  Soft and creamy with chocolate cake, sultana raisins and roasted nuts. The sherry character brings velvet sweetness and depth.

  Finish

  Long and warm with dark chocolate, nuts and a dry, spiced close.

  Caol Ila 2009/2023 Signatory Vintage 13 years old Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 57.5%

  Item no.: 059763-615-1057

  In December 2009, new make spirit ran into a bourbon hogshead at Caol Ila. The cask sat for thirteen years, and when Signatory Vintage opened it again in May 2023, only 276 bottles came out. That kind of bottling is a reminder that whisky is time.

  Expert's description

  Caol Ila 2009/2023 Signatory Vintage 13 Years is an Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky from a single bourbon hogshead (cask no. 322858), bottled at cask strength 57.5% without chill filtration and with natural colour. 276 bottles.

  Signatory Vintage is one of Scotland's most experienced independent bottlers and has operated Edradour Distillery since 2002. The Cask Strength Collection is the purest line – single casks bottled directly without dilution. 276 bottles is all this cask gave.

  Caol Ila supplies its distillate primarily to Diageo's blends, which is precisely why single-cask bottlings like this are rare and sought after. Thirteen years in bourbon oak have produced a Caol Ila with more concentration and depth than the official range.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Sea salt and seaweed open, followed by vanilla and honey from the bourbon wood. Smoky toffee and citrus peel underline the age.

  Palate

  Rich and concentrated. Smoke, salty liquorice and fruity sweetness – apricot and papaya – alternate with soft oak. Cask strength calls for a drop of water.

  Finish

  Long and warming. Smoke persists with dried herbs and a hint of dark chocolate in the tail.

  Caol Ila 2010/2021 Signatory Vintage 10 year old Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 43%

  Item no.: 059763-99979

  An independent bottler puts the spotlight on Caol Ila's distillate from a single vintage.

  Expert description

  Caol Ila 2010/2021 Signatory Vintage 10 Year Old Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky is an independent bottling from Signatory Vintage, distilled in 2010 and bottled in 2021 after 10 years of maturation, bottled at 43%. Caol Ila Distillery was founded in 1846 on the shore of the Sound of Islay, from which the distillery also takes its name — Gaelic for 'Sound of Islay'. The distillery is today owned by Diageo and is one of Islay's largest producers, although much of its output has traditionally gone into blended whisky such as Johnnie Walker. Despite its peated character, Caol Ila is often somewhat lighter and more elegant than several of Islay's other distilleries.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  The nose is smoky with sea breeze, citrus and a hint of grain.

  Palate

  The palate offers smoke, citrus and light sweetness.

  Finish

  The finish is medium to long, smoky and fairly gentle.

  Caol Ila 2012/2022 Signatory Vintage 9 years old Single Islay Malt Scotch Whisky 46%

  Item no.: 22227865479-1106-197280113

  Signatory Vintage's Un-Chillfiltered Collection is exactly what it says: whisky bottled without chill filtration, in its natural form. From hogsheads 319473 and 319477, distilled in June 2012 and bottled in February 2022 – nine years and eight months in oak.

  Expert's description

  Caol Ila 2012/2022 Signatory Vintage 9 Years The Un-Chillfiltered Collection is an Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in two hogshead casks (nos. 319473 and 319477), bottled at 46% without chill filtration and with natural colour.

  Signatory Vintage's Un-Chillfiltered Collection is the accessible line – a step lower in strength than the Cask Strength Collection, but with the same philosophy: selected casks, natural colour and no manipulation. The result is a whisky you can enjoy neat without adding water.

  Caol Ila's maritime smoke at 46% is balanced and light. The hogshead casks from 2012 have given nine years of oak structure – classic Caol Ila with good body.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Classic Caol Ila: sea salt, light peat smoke and citrus. A soft vanilla undertone from the hogshead casks and a hint of seaweed.

  Palate

  Balanced and light. Smoke, maritime notes and a little honey. Body and freshness in good harmony – accessible and clean.

  Finish

  Moderate and fresh. Smoke fades gently with citrus and salt carrying through.

  Item no.: 2227865479-1106-197280322-29

  Signatory Vintage's Un-Chillfiltered Collection is about letting the whisky stand on its own. Ten years in a hogshead, 46% and no chill filtration. It has one chance to impress – and it uses it.

  Expert's description

  Caol Ila 2012/2022 Signatory Vintage 10 Years The Un-Chillfiltered Collection is an Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in hogshead casks, bottled at 46% without chill filtration and with natural colour.

  Signatory Vintage's Un-Chillfiltered Collection presents selected casks from Scottish distilleries at an accessible strength without compromise on bottling principles. Ten years in a hogshead gives a Caol Ila with more depth than young bottlings without losing the characteristic freshness.

  Compared to the 9-year (R65), this is one year older – which in practice gives a little more oak depth and a calmer, more integrated smoke. The profile is otherwise the same classic Caol Ila: salty, maritime and balanced.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Sea salt, light peat smoke and citrus with a soft vanilla undertone. A hint of seaweed and fresh oak.

  Palate

  Balanced and clean. Smoke, maritime notes, honey and a mild maltiness. Good body for 46% – well-made and accessible.

  Finish

  Moderate and fresh. Citrus, salt and a discreet smoke that fades slowly.

  Clynelish 1992/2004 Signatory Vintage 12 years old Single Highland Malt Scotch Whisky 46%

  Item no.: 505956-759824-24

  The cask was filled in May 1992 and emptied again in May 2004 — almost to the day twelve years later. Signatory has a fondness for that kind of precision, and it rubs off on the whisky.

  Please note: The bottle is supplied without a carton.

  Expert description

  Clynelish 1992/2004 Signatory Vintage 12 years is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in a hogshead and bottled at 46% without added colouring.

  The cask carries the number 6304 and gave 395 bottles. Signatory Vintage was founded in 1988 by Andrew Symington and is among the most prolific independent bottlers in Scotland; the house also owns Edradour today. A twelve year old Clynelish from bourbon wood shows the distillery's waxy core with little cask interference, and releases from the early 1990s are becoming hard to find.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Clean and cool. Lemon peel, green apple and wet stone, with wax and a light saline note behind.

  Palate

  Crisp and malty. Apple, honey, cereal and that oily Clynelish texture, with pepper and a touch of liquorice towards the end.

  Finish

  Medium and dry, with mineral, citrus and a waxy finish that sits around for a long time.

  Clynelish 1995/2024 Symingtons Choice 28 Year Signatory Single Highland Malt Whisky 53.5%

  Item no.: 50595555-559

  Andrew Symington has spent almost four decades picking casks for other people. Symingtons Choice is the range where he picks for himself — and he started with a sherry butt from 1995.

  Expert description

  Clynelish 1995/2024 Symingtons Choice 28 years is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in an oloroso sherry butt and bottled at cask strength of 53.5%.

  The cask is numbered 11250, was filled on 21 November 1995 and emptied on 29 April 2024. It gave 447 bottles. The Symingtons Choice range is named after Signatory founder Andrew Symington, who entered the Whisky Magazine Hall of Fame in 2021. Leaving Clynelish for 28 years in oloroso is a bold call — the distillery's waxy core can easily be buried in sherry, but here the two hold each other in check.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Deep and dark. Raisin, fig and toffee first, then orange peel, walnut and a damp tobacco note from the old wood.

  Palate

  Full and oily. Dried fruit, dark chocolate, candied ginger and a layer of cocoa. Beneath the sherry, Clynelish still pulls with its waxy texture and a trace of salt.

  Finish

  Very long and warm, with fig, nuts, dark cocoa and a dry spiced close that keeps going.

  Craigellachie 2012/2023 Signatory Vintage 10 years old Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 67,4%

  Item no.: 22227865480-67093-0164

  Sixty-seven point four percent. Not many whiskies come out of the cask carrying numbers like that — and fewer still can hold them without burning.

  Expert description

  Craigellachie 2012/2023 Signatory Vintage 10 years is a Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in an oloroso butt and bottled at cask strength of 67.4% without chill filtration and without added colouring.

  The cask carries the number 900694, was filled on 4 September 2012 and emptied on 12 January 2023. The outturn was 610 bottles. Signatory Vintage was founded in 1988 by Andrew Symington and is among the most prolific independent bottlers in Scotland. Craigellachie makes a heavy, meaty spirit in worm tubs, and an oloroso butt over ten years lays dried fruit on top without being able to drown the minerality.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Concentrated and dark. Raisin, fig and orange peel, with walnut, dark chocolate and a flinty note under the sherry.

  Palate

  Massive but not sharp. Dried fruit, cocoa and malt, with an oily texture carrying the alcohol. The sulphurous distillery edge cuts through the sweetness and gives direction.

  Finish

  Very long and dry, with nuts, dark fruit and a warm spiced close that keeps going.

  Investment potential

  Medium. 610 bottles from one oloroso cask at unusually high strength. The combination of Craigellachie and active sherry is in demand, and the bottling will not return.

  Did you know?

  A cask strength of 67.4% after ten years means the cask lost very little alcohol along the way. That happens in cool, damp warehouses where water evaporates more slowly than alcohol — one reason Scottish warehouses often sit low and close to water.

  Craigellachie 2012/2023 Signatory Vintage 10 years old Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 68.4%

  Item no.: 059763-615-147

  Same distillation day, same distillery, bottled five weeks later — and an entirely different cask. Two neighbouring casks from 2012, one of which had held sherry before and one of which had not.

  Expert description

  Craigellachie 2012/2023 Signatory Vintage 10 years is a Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in a first fill oloroso butt and bottled at cask strength of 68.4% without chill filtration and without added colouring.

  The cask is numbered 900699, was filled on 4 September 2012 and emptied on 17 February 2023. It gave 529 bottles. First fill means it went straight from sherry to Scotch with nothing in between, which gives a far stronger cask influence than a refill. Signatory buys casks from distilleries across Scotland and bottles them under its own name.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Dense and dark. Syrupy raisin, black cherry and orange marmalade, with cinnamon, dark cocoa and a dry nutty note.

  Palate

  Fiercely concentrated. Fig, date, chocolate and burnt sugar, with a peppery warmth and a dry sherry edge. The distillery's mineral core sits underneath and keeps the sweetness from running away.

  Finish

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

  Medium. 529 bottles from a first fill oloroso cask at 68.4%. Active sherry wood on Craigellachie is a rare combination, and the outturn is small.

  Did you know?

  First fill sherry casks have become scarce. The sherry industry has shrunk, and most casks used in Scotch today are made to order and seasoned with sherry for a few years rather than having carried wine for decades.

  Dailuaine 1997/2018 Signatory 20 year old Single Speyside Malt 46%

  Item no.: 22227865391-7256

  Filled in May 1997, emptied in February 2018. Twenty years and nine months in a warehouse where nobody was in a hurry — and a distillery few people know by name.

  Please note: Wear to the tube and rust on the cap.

  Expert description

  Dailuaine 1997/2018 Signatory 20 years is a Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in two hogsheads and bottled at 46% without chill filtration and without added colouring.

  The casks carry the numbers 7223 and 7224. Dailuaine sits at Carron in Speyside, was founded in 1852 and has throughout its history supplied malt for blends rather than for its own bottles. Signatory Vintage, founded in 1988 by Andrew Symington, is among the bottlers who systematically bring distilleries like this forward — and with twenty years in bourbon wood, Dailuaine's heavy, malted core stands clearly.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Malt and baked apple first, then honey, vanilla and a dry nutty note from the many years in cask.

  Palate

  Full and malty. Cereal, honey and candied citrus, with a layer of spice and an oily texture the 46% carries well.

  Finish

  Long and dry, with malt, nuts and a mild oak warmth.

  Investment potential

  Medium. Twenty years in cask from a distillery with very few official bottlings. Dailuaine from the 1990s steadily gets harder to find as the casks are emptied.

  Did you know?

  In 1884 Dailuaine became the first Scottish distillery to get a pagoda roof over its kiln — the pointed cap that is today the very symbol of a whisky distillery. The architect Charles Doig drew it, and everyone else copied it afterwards.

  Dailuaine 1997/2022 Signatory 24 year old Single Speyside Malt Whisky 47,4%

  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.

  High. Twenty-four years in cask, 369 bottles and a distillery whose own bottlings barely exist. Old Dailuaine is increasingly traded among collectors.

  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.

  Dailuaine 2008/2021 Signatory Vintage 13 years old Single Speyside Malt Scotch Whisky 46%

  Item no.: 22227865479-1106-197280103

  No filtration, no colouring, no adjustment. The Un-Chillfiltered Collection is Signatory's attempt to show a distillery as it actually comes out of the cask.

  Expert description

  Dailuaine 2008/2021 The Un-Chillfiltered Collection Signatory Vintage 13 years is a Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in bourbon casks and bottled at 46% without chill filtration and without added colouring.

  The whisky was distilled on 20 June 2008 and bottled on 6 August 2021, and the outturn was only 157 bottles. The range gathers hand-picked releases from distilleries across Scotland, chosen for their clear flavour profile rather than their name value. Dailuaine is one of those distilleries that almost never appears on its own bottles, and thirteen years in bourbon wood gives a clean, malted version with no cask make-up.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Pale and malty. Apple, cereal and vanilla, with a light floral note and a touch of citrus.

  Palate

  Clean and full. Malt, honey and baked apple, with vanilla from the bourbon cask and a dry spiced edge. The 46% gives good weight without tightening up.

  Finish

  Medium and dry, with cereal, vanilla and a light nutty note.

  Did you know?

  Chill filtration was introduced to stop whisky going hazy in the fridge — not to make it better. Signatory drops the step entirely in this range, which is why the whisky may cloud when cold. That is a sign the oils are still in it.

  Dailuaine 2008/2025 Signatory Vintage 16 Year Single Speyside Malt Whisky 57%

  Item no.: 333222-19722

  Dailuaine has enough body to take an oloroso butt without being buried in it. That is why the distillery has been so useful in blends — and why the sherry finish works here.

  Expert description

  Dailuaine 2008/2025 Signatory Vintage 16 years is a Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky finished in an oloroso sherry butt and bottled at cask strength of 57% without chill filtration and without added colouring.

  The whisky was distilled on 9 April 2008 and bottled on 19 February 2025 from cask number 6, with an outturn of 681 bottles. The release belongs to Signatory's Cask Strength Collection. The combination of Dailuaine's fruity, malted base and the dark oloroso notes gives a whisky where sweetness and spice pull in different directions without fighting.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Dried fruits such as raisins and figs, alongside roasted nuts, dark chocolate and spiced oak.

  Palate

  Deep and balanced. Sweetness and spice in fine interplay, with a full, oily texture in which the alcohol is elegantly integrated despite the 57%.

  Finish

  Long and warm, with hints of coffee and leather.

  Medium. 681 bottles from an oloroso finish at cask strength, from a distillery whose own bottlings barely exist. Signatory's Cask Strength Collection is followed closely by collectors.

  Did you know?

  A finish in oloroso is not the same as full maturation in sherry wood. The whisky sits in its main cask first and is moved across for the final years — enough to give colour and fruit, but not long enough for the cask to take over the distillery's own voice.

  Dailuaine 2009/2022 The Un-Chillfiltered Collection Signatory 12 Year Old Single Speyside Malt Whisky 46%

  Item no.: 22-197284558

  Two hogsheads, twelve years and no treatment along the way. Signatory calls the range Un-Chillfiltered, but in practice it is just as much about what you refrain from doing.

  Please note: Rust on the cap and wear to the carton label.

  Expert description

  Dailuaine 2009/2022 The Un-Chillfiltered Collection Signatory Vintage 12 years is a Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in two hogsheads and bottled at 46% without chill filtration and without added colouring.

  The casks carry the numbers 307385 and 307386. The whisky was distilled on 6 May 2009 and bottled on 4 February 2022. The range gathers hand-picked releases from distilleries across Scotland, where the whisky is allowed into bottle in its most untreated form. Dailuaine delivers a heavier spirit than most of its Speyside neighbours, and twelve years in hogsheads is enough to give balance without erasing the malted core.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Fresh and cereal-led. Green apple, malt and vanilla, with a light herbal note and a touch of citrus peel.

  Palate

  Clean and malty. Cereal, honey and baked fruit, with vanilla from the oak and a dry, lightly spiced middle. The texture is fuller than filtered whisky at the same strength.

  Finish

  Medium and dry, with malt, apple and a mild oak note.
