- Description
- Benriach's single cask expression from June 2011, rested for a full decade before independent bottler Alistair Walker released just 272 bottles in September 2021, offers an unblended view of the distillery's character. As a Speyside single malt, Benriach typically offers malty sweetness and subtle floral notes, which a decade in a single cask would have evolved and concentrated. The limited release number underscores the scarcity and individual nature of cask-bottled whisky. For whisky enthusiasts who value cask variation and the story of a single spirit's 10-year journey.
