Signatory
Scotland
Single Malt
An indie Edradour here, distilled in June 2010 and left in a single cask for a decade. After it passed its 10th birthday, Signatory bottled it in July 2020 for its Un-Chillfiltered Collection. Suitably toasty and filled with spice, this one.
Aromas of mocha, apple jam and cinnamon, with honeycomb and cooked red fruit.
Pear skin and a dusting of cocoa, alongside dried cranberry and sweet spices.
A peppery finish with a drizzle of honey and chocolate malt.
46% Un-chillfiltered No added colour 10 years old The Signatory edition of Edradour 10 year old highland malt. Edradour is a very small distillery which is owned by Signatory the Independent bottling company. These are very traditional companies going back to the olde days when distillers sold their whisky to grocers and merchants to be bottled. These days they buy casks of whisky from distilleries and either simply bottle it or more commonly, use their own mainly bourbon barrels. Often they spend additional time in special casks such as ex-sherry, port, wine, rum or even alternative whisky finishes. Now Signatory is renowned and many of there whiskies are not cheap. But their Deanston 9 year is my favourite. I think. Until I got this. Why buy Edradour. Well Ralfy reviewed it on his whisky channel and made it out as one of the most challenging fusile, tar, carbolic menthol whiskies you can buy, but required to challenge your taste buds and which calmed down over time. They say whisky is subjective and that is of course right. And my experience was just a bit different? Colour-It is a stunning deep deep ruby red. Almost like Paxterette (an old colouring now banned but originally fermented grape added to oloroso, Pedro Ximénez and wine). Nose:-Sherry. A strong dry Sherry. Deep red fruit. Milk chocolate. Jam. Hints of wood tannins. Malt and whisky fudge. Taste:-Nothing fusile here. Viscous. Dry. Then sweet. Chocolate. Sultanas. Jammy. Red fruit. Ginger and pepper. The Sherry cask influence is hammered home. Dry hot finish. So I’ve checked the butt numbers and this came from the same one Ralfy reviewed and we are poles apart. A little confusing to be honest but it’s now pretty much my fav whisky. Apart from the Dartmoor bourbon cask. Or maybe Arran 10. But then there is still the Deanston 9 year Signatory....
Fruity and warm, an enjoyable dram for the dark evenings. Gives a warming feel to finish.
