- Description
- Benriach's December 1976 distillation spent nearly three decades in wood before emerging as a 27-year-old of considerable maturity through the First Cask independent bottling. Released at 46% ABV, this spirit represents the quieter, slower evolution of Speyside character over long aging. Sourced from a private collection, its rarity adds provenance to its appeal. A restrained, aged Speyside suited to contemplative tasting.
