Signal Hill presents itself as a whisky with a balanced and pleasantly direct character: on the nose come sensations of mature grains, honey and a delicate vanilla that doesn’t overpower, together with hints of dried fruit and a subtle smokiness that adds depth. The palate is round and composed, with a medium-full body and a freshness that supports the drinking; the texture is clean, with measured sapidity and sweet spices that harmonize with light woody notes, giving persistence without weighing it down.

It lends itself to a contemplative tasting, served neat or with a drop of water to open up the aromas: a tulip glass will enhance the perfumes, while a dry tumbler makes it more convivial. Ideal pairings include dark chocolate, dried fruit and aged cheeses; it also stands up well to mildly smoked dishes or as a post-dinner seal. 70 cl bottle that maintains a sober, enjoyable rhythm, suited to those seeking a whisky of character without excess.
