The Signatory Vintage STRATHISLA 10 Years Old The Un-Chillfiltered Collection 2016 is a Speyside single malt Scotch whisky selected and bottled by the renowned independent bottler Signatory Vintage. The distillate comes from the historic Strathisla Distillery in Keith, in Scotland's Speyside region, whose history dates back to 1786, making it one of the oldest working distilleries in Scotland. The year 2016 indicates the year of distillation, while the age statement of 10 years specifies the legally required minimum maturation of the whisky. Signatory Vintage is known for its selective choice of casks from various Scottish distilleries, making their individual character accessible through dedicated series.
This bottling belongs to the Signatory Vintage The Un-Chillfiltered Collection, whose name itself reveals a key feature: the Strathisla 10 Years Old is bottled without chill filtration. This preserves the whisky's natural components, which can contribute significantly to its texture and original cask character. At 46% ABV, this bottling also boasts the robust drinking strength typical of this Signatory series. The 10-year-old Strathisla Single Malt is presented in a 70cl bottle with a gift box, thus connecting the time-honored Speyside distillery with Signatory Vintage's independent bottling concept. The combination of Strathisla, 10 years of maturation, the 2016 vintage, and non-chill filtered bottling makes it particularly appealing to enthusiasts of distillery-specific and independently bottled Scotch whiskies.
