Benrinnes 12 Year Old 2011 is a rich and characterful Speyside single malt Scotch whisky, hand-selected and bottled exclusively for Cadenhead’s Edinburgh Shop. Distilled in 2011 and matured for 12 years in a bourbon hogshead, this limited release yielded just 300 bottles, showcasing the robust and weighty spirit style that has made Benrinnes a favourite among independent bottlers.

The bourbon hogshead maturation allows the distillery’s naturally meaty and full-bodied character to shine through while adding layers of vanilla cream, honeyed malt, orchard fruits, and gentle oak spice. Cadenhead’s traditional bottling philosophy ensures the whisky is presented in a natural style without chill-filtration or added colour, preserving the spirit’s authentic texture and flavour complexity.

The Distillery

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.
