Age statement
A 20-year age statement signals extended maturation, which limits how much was ever bottled.
Named / limited release
Released as St Magdalene 1978 20 Year Old 100 Years Of Waterloo Street Glasgow, a named edition rather than part of the standard core range.
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.
