Bottle Information
Tasting Notes
TWB Tasting Notes: On the nose, rich aromas of dark chocolate, dried fruits, and toasted almonds mingle with subtle hints of citrus zest and warm spices. The palate offers a full-bodied experience featuring layers of sweet sherry, caramelized figs, and ripe plums, complemented by undertones of vanilla and nutmeg. The finish is long and satisfying, with lingering notes of oak, spice, and a gentle wisp of smoke. The use of an Oloroso Octave cask—a smaller cask holding approximately one-eighth the volume of a standard sherry butt—allows for greater wood-to-whisky contact. This results in a deeper infusion of the rich Oloroso sherry characteristics, enhancing the whisky's complexity and depth. Bottled at natural cask strength and free from chill filtration and artificial coloring, this expression captures the pure essence of Benrinnes' spirit. Each bottle from cask #313794C is individually numbered, ensuring its uniqueness and collectible value.

Benrinnes
Benrinnes Distillery is a Speyside Scotch whisky gem situated at the foot of Ben Rinnes near Aberlour, drawing its name from the towering mountain that shapes the region’s cool microclimate. Established in the 19th century and now part of the Diageo portfolio, Benrinnes boasts a distinctive partial triple distillation process that imparts its single malts with a rich, meaty character balanced by subtle sweetness. While much of its production contributes to some of Scotland’s most notable blended whiskies, limited single malt releases—including those in Diageo’s Flora & Fauna range and various independent bottlings—showcase the distillery’s robust and complex flavor profile. Ideal for both Speyside whisky enthusiasts and collectors seeking rare expressions, Benrinnes exemplifies the craftsmanship, tradition, and terroir that define this storied region’s global reputation for fine Scotch whisky.
