- Description
- Imperial's 20-year-old single malt, distilled in September 1995 and matured in two hogshead casks until June 2016, represents one of the final releases from this now-demolished Speyside distillery. Signatory's Cask Strength Collection bottled 521 bottles, capturing the spirit's full maturation intensity from ex-bourbon casks. The distillery's closure shortly after this distillation makes surviving stock particularly sought-after. This is for collectors documenting vanished Speyside distilleries and those appreciating cask-strength expressions.
