Closed / ghost distillery
Rosebank was silent from 1993 until its 2023 revival, so bottlings from the original distillery are finite.
Single vintage
Distilled in a single year (1989), so the available batch is inherently finite.
Named / limited release
Released as rare, a named edition rather than part of the standard core range.
Independent bottling
An independent bottling by gordonmacphail, typically produced in far smaller numbers than an official distillery release.
These are scarcity and demand signals drawn from the bottle's own attributes — they describe the bottle, not a prediction of future price. Not investment advice.
