The Signatory Vintage Islay 31 Year Old 1992 "Symington's Choice" is a rare and exceptional single malt Scotch whisky, distilled at the renowned Laphroaig distillery on the Isle of Islay. Distilled on November 19, 1992, this whisky has matured gracefully for 31 years in a single bourbon barrel, cask #6776, before being bottled at natural cask strength of 51.8% ABV on February 12, 2024. A total of 237 bottles were meticulously filled from this special cask, making it a highly sought-after release.
This extraordinary whisky offers a complex profile of sweet vanilla, toasted oak, and subtle spice, perfectly complementing the characteristic peaty notes that are the hallmark of Laphroaig. The extended maturation in a bourbon barrel has refined the trademark smoky and medicinal flavors of Laphroaig, revealing a more nuanced and well-rounded spirit. Presented at its natural color, with no chill-filtration, it showcases the pure and unadulterated flavors of this exceptional single malt.
On the nose, this whisky is a symphony of leather, tar, ash, smoke, seaweed, salt, rope, harbor, and diesel, all harmoniously blending to create a truly unique and special Islay whisky. The palate is bold and spicy, with the high alcohol content adding an extra layer of complexity. The finish is long and satisfying, with the flavors and aromas converging in a harmonious and gratifying conclusion.
This whisky is a testament to the art of whisky making and is a must-have for any serious whisky collector or enthusiast. With only 237 bottles released, this is a rare and highly treasured addition to any collection.
