- Description
- Benrinnes' meaty depth meets graceful sherry influence in this 11-year-old matured in a Palo Cortado hogshead and bottled at 54.1% ABV. The Speyside distillery's robust house style combines with the wine cask's dried fruit and subtle oxidative notes, creating layered richness. Texture remains smooth despite the high strength, with a lingering finish that balances spirit and cask. This sherried Highland malt suits those seeking complexity beyond typical bourbon-cask Speysiders.
