Brora 1981 Signatory Vintage 22 Year Old

Signatory Vintage were established in 1988 by Andrew Symington and are one of Scotland's most prolific independent bottlers. Their offices and bottling facility are located next to Edradour distillery, which they have also owned since 2002.

This 1981 vintage Brora was drawn from a sherry butt for their Un-Chillfilered Collection.

Brora distillery, formerly known as Clynelish was initially closed after a new distillery was built next-door in 1967, and assumed the Clynelish name. The original distillery re-opened after a year's hiatus, and bottlings of the whisky it produced between then and its second closure in 1983 are now increasingly sought after. Official bottlings of Brora did not appear until the 1990s, long after its closure, but independent bottlings like this were produced from the late 1980s.

This whisky was distilled on 1st December 1981 and laid to rest in sherry butt #1519 for 25 years before being bottled on 15th January 2007.
