Signatory Vintage are an independent bottler founded in 1988 by Andrew and Brian Symington. The name ‘Signatory’ was derived from the initial intention to find a person of suitable standing to sign the labels for bottles drawn from a single cask. The first cask bottled was a 1968 Glenlivet which quickly sold through long before any suitable signee could be found.
Signatory currently bottle at three strengths: 43%, 46% Unchillfiltered (UCF) and Cask Strength.To add proof of authenticity to their cask strength bottlings, Signatory always include the cask numbers, date of distillation, date of bottling and number of bottles produced.Signatory Vintage’s aim is to offer as wide a range of whiskies as possible, some of which are not even bottled by the proprietary distillery. This allows malt enthusiast to sample the huge variety of subtle differences which occur between casks.
The Glen Keith Distillery is quite a modern distillery founded in 1958. The distillery was the first to open after the great whisky crash of 1898. Founded by Chivas Brothers it is located in the beautiful town of Keith in Speyside, Scotland. The distillery sits very close to one of Scotland’s oldest distilleries, Strathisla. Chivas use the distillery to produce whisky for their blends mainly Passport and 100 Pipers. The distillery was mothballed in 1999 and reopened in 2013 when it was renovated.
This single malt whisky was distilled in 1997 at the Glen Keith distillery on before being placed Bourbon Hogshead barrels and left to mature for 24 years. In 2022 it was bottled at 51.7% abv as part of the Signatory Vintage Cask Strength Collection. Only 518 bottles worldwide were produced of this fine liquid for us all to enjoy.
