This is a Speyside single malt bottled by independent bottler Signatory Vintage at a robust 100 proof strength. At 17 years old and drawn from a first-fill Oloroso sherry butt, it is likely to show a fuller, richer style than a lighter ex-bourbon-matured malt.
For a novice drinker, expect a sherried profile with weight, spice, and concentrated fruit, with the higher ABV adding extra intensity. Water may help open it up and make the flavours easier to explore.
