Description

This 10-year-old bottling combines the fruity, elegant character of the Benriach Distillery with the strong, slightly peppery note of American rye whisky, thanks to its unusual finish in Koval rye whiskey casks. Distilled in 2014 and bottled in 2025 at natural cask strength, it is uncolored and non-chill-filtered. This limited edition of 629 bottles is part of Murray McDavid's Benchmark series, showcasing the art of maturation through innovative cask finishing.
