Soapy Edradour - was Cadenhead Edradour 19 yr

[Fredrika Gross]

I'm disappointed Signatory would release something that bad.

Not to excuse Signatory, but the spirit would have been from the PR days,
would it not?

I'm hoping an expression that's Signatory from start to finish (so to speak)
will be better.  We'll have to wait for that.

I think some of the best of the regular Edradours were produced by Signatory
in the pre-ownership days, the ones in the all blue tin tube.
I've had the 1st batch of the post-Signatory purchase, and two of the 2nd
batch. Awful. Undrinkable. I keep a sample just to see how people react. I
haven't bought since, but have tried out some when the company was paying.
Still awful.
There's something not nice going on at Edradour.

(Any collector want Bottle No. 1 of the Sig?)
