Cuvée presentation

Small batch (#1781 et #1782) de Bladnoch distillé en 1974 et embouteillé en 2002. Andrew Symington, fondateur de Signatory Vintage, commence son activité dans le whisky en sélectionnant des fûts pour le Prestonfield House Hotel à Edimbourg. C’est ainsi que débute l’aventure d’Andrew Symington dans le whisky et qu’il lance par la suite Signatory Vintage en 1988. Ce dernier investit dans une petite chaîne d’embouteillage qu’il installe au sein de ses chais à Edimbourg. Il commence par embouteiller au degré naturel, sans filtration à froid et sans colorant, ce qui était encore des méthodes peu courantes à la fin des années 1980. La mythique série des « Dumpy bottle » affichait notamment des informations qui, jusque-là, n’étaient pas divulguées par les embouteilleurs comme le numéro du fût, le type de fût, le nombre de bouteilles… Les numéros de bouteilles étaient également inscrits à la main. Signatory Vintage s’est forgé une grande réputation en vendant non seulement des whiskies mythiques provenant de distilleries légendaires (Springbank, Ardbeg, Laphroaig ou Bowmore) mais également en réalisant des embouteillages issus de distilleries extrêmement rares comme Ben Wyvis, Glen Flagler ou Killyloch. Sans oublier les nombreuses versions distillées dans les alambics Lomond de Miltonduff (Mosstowie), Glen Keith (Craigduff, Glenisla) ou Glenburgie (Glencraig). Enfin, en 2002, Andrew Symington fait l'acquisition de la distillerie Edradour, à Pitlochry dans les Highlands. Il y relocalise aussi Signatory Vintage dont les chais font face à la distillerie. Édition limitée à 331 bouteilles.

The distillery Bladnoch

Scotland, Lowlands. Distillery operational. Owner: David Prior

Located in the extreme south-west Lowlands, not far from the English border, Bladnoch has always had its gaze set on Belfast (Ireland), which stands not far away. This attraction is also part of its past, with its founders, the McClellands, teaming up with the Belfast company Wm Dunville & Co in 1911. Closed from 1938 until 1956, it was then traded between Inver House Distillers Ltd, Arthur Bell & Sons and, finally, United Distillers, companies for which it produced a whisky primarily used for the groups' blends. Up until the mid-1990s, its own bottlings were rare. United Distillers, however, incorporated it into its two flagship ranges of the time, The Rare Malts Selection and Flora & Fauna, but later decided to close the site in 1993. In 1994, Raymond Armstrong, of Northern Ireland, offered to buy the distillery to create a cultural centre. Despite a clause limiting production to 100,000 litres of spirit per year signed upon purchase, in 2000 he decided to re-launch production and soon released many new bottlings of Bladnoch.
