As one of the most renowned independent bottlers of Scotch worldwide, Signatory Vintage Scotch stands for exceptional exclusivity. By carefully selecting malts from the most prestigious distilleries in Scotland and concentrating on individual batches and casks, Signatory creates a product that is described as “single, single, single malt” – a sign of the highest exclusivity.
As an independent bottler, Signatory has the opportunity to acquire selected casks from across Scotland that are normally used in blends and market them under its own label as single malts. This process involves the targeted selection of specific distillations or batches from the distilleries, meticulous tasting of each cask and the bottling of only the highest quality casks from each batch.
This 8-year-old single malt whisky comes from the Miltonduff distillery and was matured in first fill bourbon barrels by the independent bottler Signatory Vintage. Bottling #24 of Signatory’s 100 Proof range is released with a strong alcohol content of at least 57.1%. The term “proof” goes back to a historical unit of measurement for the alcohol content of spirits, which was used especially for whisky.
It marks the minimum alcohol content at which gunpowder wetted with the liquid remains flammable. This method was used in the heyday of seafaring to ensure that the barrels in the hold of ships remained stable despite the extreme conditions on the high seas and protected the valuable contents
