A small batch of Strathmill distilled in 1996, aged in hogshead casks and bottled in 2022 by Signatory Vintage. Signatory Vintage's founder Andrew Symington first joined the whisky industry when he began selecting casks for Prestonfield House Hotel in Edinburgh. In 1988, the adventure continued when he founded Signatory Vintage, investing in a small bottling chain set up in his warehouses in Edinburgh. He began releasing editions bottled at cask strength without chillfiltration or colouring, practices that were still rare in the late 1980s. The legendary series of “Dumpy bottles” notably included information previously seldom seen on labels, such as the cask number, cask type and number of bottles. The bottle number was also written by hand. Signatory Vintage developed a strong reputation by selling not only iconic whiskies from well-known distilleries (Springbank, Ardbeg, Laphroaig and Bowmore) but also bottlings from very rare distilleries such as Ben Wyvis, Glen Flagler and Killyloch, and of course the many versions distilled in the Lomond stills of Miltonduff (Mosstowie), Glen Keith (Craigduff, Glenisla) and Glenburgie (Glencraig). Finally, in 2002, Andrew Symington bought the Edradour distillery in Pitlochry, in the Highlands of Scotland. Signatory Vintage was moved to the site, along with its warehouses, which face the distillery. A limited edition of 330 bottles.

The distillery Strathmill

Strathmill was founded in 1892 under the name Glenisla-Glenlivet. It took its current name three years later when it was bought by W&A Gilbey, which would become International Distillers and Vintners (IDV) in 1962. Strathmill became a key component of the group’‘s flagship blend Justerini & Brooks (J&B). Now owned by Diageo, the distillery continues to be used for this purpose. For this reason, few official bottlings exist, save for a Flora & Fauna, a Special Release and a Manager’‘s Dram. Expressions of the single malt are more commonly found as independent bottlings.
