A single sherry butt of blended malt. This is a vatted stock of numerous old Signatory cask samples and bottling run ends that was married and put into fresh sherry wood with a minimum age of 16 years old. The composition is by now at least 30 years old, but contains within it many much, much older whiskies, many of which hail from closed distilleries and date back to the 1960s. We've bottled this butt at natural cask strength and the result is a wonderfully aromatic and old style sherried malt.
Aroma: Dried fruit and wood varnish, macerated orange peel, a “dusty” note like old books mixed with leather and aged pine, subtle mint and eucalyptus.
Taste: omehow better than the nose. Golden raisins, orange and lemon peel, red grapes, a rich but not over powering wood note, hint of mint and grapefruit
Finish: Surprisingly long. Herbaceous. More mint. Touch of coriander and dried basil. Really really nice.
