The Enigma bottlings from Cadenhead, as the name suggests, do not mention the distillery. With this edition, we have to make do with the knowledge that it is an 11-year-old, oloroso-matured Lowland single malt whisky at 57.5% ABV. For a nice price!

The Imperial Distillery, built in Speyside in 1897, closed a century later, in 1998. Of course, independent bottlings of the single malt whisky have continued to appear since then, but fewer and fewer. This one is from 2013. (17y, bourbon matured, 51.2%)
Okay, from which of the 50 or so Speyside distilleries does this single malt whisky come? No idea. We do know that this malt aged for no less than 28 years in a bourbon cask, which means that the ABV percentage is almost at the critical limit: 40.1%!
In 2017, Cadenhead's Authentic Collection released a bottling of a 26-year-old Bladnoch single malt whisky. This malt from the 'Queen of the Lowlands' aged in a bourbon cask and is bottled at 49%. An oily, buttery dram with lots of fruit, honey and nuts.

An exemplary 'Laddie', is how tasters describe this 12-year-old Bruichladdich single malt whisky, bottled in 2018 by Archives in the Fishes of Samoa series. The Islay malt matured in an ex-bourbon cask and is bottled at a cask strength of 52.5%.
This bottle dates back to the time when 'single malt' was called 'pure malt', and when Cadenhead still bottled in dumpy bottles. The bottle contains a 16-year-old Benromach single malt whisky, at the time intended for the Italian market. (45.7%, 75cl)
Another interesting finishing experiment from Alistair Walker! This 37-year-old Invergordon single grain whisky has spent the last almost four years maturing in a cask that previously held an American rye whisky. It's certainly intriguing! ( 44.5% ABV)
