Caperdonich was closed for the final time in 2002 and the buildings were demolished in 2011 (although two of the stills were sold on to Owl distillery in Belgium). Prior to that, most of Caperdonich's spirit went to former owners Seagram / Pernod Ricard's blends, such as Chivas Regal.
It's a delight, therefore, to welcome this 20-year-old Signatory Vintage bottling of Caperdonich distilled in 2000, a couple of years before the distillery was laid to rest. Even better, it's from a hogshead cask bottled at its natural strength of 56.4%, giving Caperdonich's clean, grassy spirit plenty of space to express itself.
With all the above, plus the fact that Caperdonich was originally designed to mimic Glen Grant's malt style, this should be an absolutely terrific dram. There's been a few indie Caperdonichs about in recent years but who knows how long that will continue.

Balmenach was a new Distillery to me that is probably better known these days for it's Gin production. I've tried quite a few of the SV 100 Proof offerings and have yet to be disappointed. I have found that Balmenach Whisky isn't that easy to get hold of so this was a good opportunity to try it and I was nicely impressed. If you like sherry bombs you'll probably like this one.
Love Miltonduff malt whisky but normally out of my price range.
This one from the Signatory 100 Proof Series although only eight years old tastes superb and is excellent value for money.
