A DRAM HUNTER SELECTION USA EXCLUSIVE. Distilled at Benrinnes Distillery November 1st, 2006. Hogshead no. 309928 bottled in October 2022.
Barbados Rum Cask Finish. There are two water sources that Benrinnes has access to and they are The Scurran and Rowantree Burns. The water sources from both rivers is excellent and really makes a difference when making quality malts like Benrinnes. This Speyside malt whisky was drawn at CASK STRENGTH which means each and every bottle contains its own share of CASK SEDIMENT.

DISTILLERY STORY
Blackadder’s philosophy is very simple – they believe that the Cask is King. Sixty to seventy percent of the flavours in a whisky are taken up slowly from the cask as the spirit lies maturing in the warehouse. The action of changing temperature draws the spirit in and out of the cask. Every cask is unique, with its own fingerprint. This is why they bottle most of their whiskies from single casks. They don’t believe in chilling or otherwise heavily filtering their whiskies, and they never, repeat never, add caramel colouring and flavouring to their spirits. They have always believed the personalities of their whiskies are colourful enough.
