Lovely oily, fruity, gently smoky and coastal with plenty of sweetness from the bourbon and sherry cask influences that work well with this distillery’s characteristic heathery smoke. 86/100
Crabbie 22 Years Old Orkney
Dallas Dhu 22 Years Old 1982 Vintage Collection
Hugely fruity and with a mass of creamy vanilla and coconut from the hogshead maturation. An experience to sample from this now closed distillery, still plenty going on in this whisky despite the delivery at 43%, great quality from Signatory. 85/100
Imperial 20 Year Old 1995 Cask Strength Collection
Another beautiful single cask Imperial from Signatory. This is much more balanced than the last with an equal weighting of spirit and cask influences. Truly luxurious in feel and a good depth of woody sugars mix to evoke some wonderfully complex flavours. Delicious! 90/100
Imperial 19 Year Old 1995 Cask Strength Collection
Bright, crisp and sharp – what better descriptives could I look for when describing this single cask example? Eludes to its age with a depth and complexity but still some distillery character shines through, so not over-oaked! Packed full of cereals with a touch of citrus zest and a healthy dollop of vanilla. 89/100
