Signatory Vintage Whisky Cask Strength Collection – Glenrothes 30 y.o. When an independent bottler such as Signatory Vintage allows a cask from the Speyside distillery Glenrothes to mature for a full 30 years and then releases it as part of its renowned Cask Strength Collection (often in the exclusive sub-range Symington’s Choice), we are talking about an absolute premium whisky.

A prime example is the current bottling from 1995. Typically, the natural cask strength after 30 years is still a robust 51% to 55% ABV. This ensures an exceptionally intense mouthfeel.

A whisky of this calibre needs time in the glass. After pouring, allow it to breathe for a few minutes.

Facts & Figures: Region: Speyside ABV: 54.6% Cask Type: First Fill Oloroso Sherry Butt Cask Number: 6979 Bottled: 02/02/2026 Limitation: 487 bottles

Yamazaki Whisky 12 y.o.

The Yamazaki 12 Years Old is far more than just a whisky – it is regarded as the pioneer that brought Japanese single malt whisky to the world stage. Since its launch in 1984 by Suntory, it has epitomised the elegant, balanced style for which Japan is now world-renowned.

The whisky comes from the Yamazaki Distillery, Japan’s oldest malt distillery, founded in 1923 by Shinjiro Torii. The distillery is located near Kyoto, in a region known for its exceptionally pure water and humid climate – both essential factors for the maturation of whisky.

Unlike many smoky or robust whiskies from Scotland, the Yamazaki 12 Year Old focuses on finesse. It is harmonious, mild, and very approachable, making it appealing to both beginners and connoisseurs alike.

Cask types: American oak casks, sherry casks, Japanese oak casks

Glendalough Whiskey 7 y.o. Mizunara Cask Finish Batch 1

The Glendalough 7 Year Old Single Malt (Mizunara Finish) is far more than just another Irish whiskey. It forms an exciting bridge between the ‘Emerald Isle’ and the ‘Land of the Rising Sun’.

This single malt spent the majority of its maturation in American bourbon barrels before being transferred to rare Mizunara casks from the forests of Hokkaido for its final finishing period. These casks impart a very distinctive character to the whiskey, often associated with notes of sandalwood, incense, and coconut.

The Glendalough 7 Mizunara is not a ‘daily dram’ for casual drinking. It is a whisky to be savoured. The combination of typical Irish smoothness and the almost sacred spiciness of the Japanese wood makes it one of the most interesting experiments on the Irish market in recent years.

Tip: Give this whisky at least 10–15 minutes to breathe in the glass. The Mizunara aromas need oxygen to fully unfold.

Yamazaki 12 Years Old: A Masterpiece of Japanese Whisky Craftsmanship

Yamazaki 12 Years Old is an iconic single malt whisky from the distillery of the same name near Kyoto, Japan. Founded in 1923, the Yamazaki Distillery is Japan’s oldest whisky distillery. It belongs to the Suntory Group, one of the world’s leading spirits manufacturers. Yamazaki 12 Years Old was one of the first Japanese whiskies to gain international recognition and played a key role in establishing the reputation of Japanese whisky as a high-quality alternative to Scottish and Irish whiskies.

Yamazaki 12 Years Old is made from pure spring water from the region, imported Scottish barley, and a unique combination of different types of casks:

ex-bourbon casks (for vanilla and caramel notes),

sherry casks (for fruity and spicy aromas),

Japanese Mizunara oak casks (for its characteristic spice).

Maturation takes place in the distillery’s cool cellars, where seasonal temperature fluctuations give the whisky its distinctive depth.

Glenfiddich 18 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky is an outstanding representative of the traditional Speyside distillery Glenfiddich, which is world-renowned for its innovative strength and consistent quality. The 18-year-old bottling is part of the "Small Batch Reserve" series and represents elegance, depth, and masterful craftsmanship.

Glenfiddich 18 y.o. matures for 18 years in a combination of Oloroso sherry and American oak casks. The whiskies are then blended in small batches to ensure consistency and depth of flavor.

This extended maturation gives the whisky a remarkable balance of fruitiness, spice, and oak. The result is a particularly elegant and harmonious single malt.
