The BenRiach
Distillery Company have announced three
new special releases the BenRiach 10th
Anniversary bottling, the BenRiach 35
year old and the 24 year old Batch 6 of
GlenDronach’s Grandeur series.
The BenRiach Distillery Company have
announced three new special releases –
two from BenRiach itself and one from
GlenDronach.
First up we have the BenRiach 10th
Anniversary bottling is a strictly
limited edition one-off bottling to
commemorate a very special occasion.
Back in 2004, Billy Walker and his two
South African partners Geoff Bell and
Wayne Kieswetter purchased BenRiach and
turned it into one of Scotland’s most
admired distilleries.
On September 20 that year, the first
distillation under the new owners was
filled to cask. Ten years on, Billy
Walker has married together four
outstanding casks from the first week of
production to create this limited
bottling, it has been bottled 46% ABV
and is a limited release of only 1106
bottles.
The four bourbon barrels - 7257, 7258,
7259 and 7260 - distilled on September
21, 2004, are perfect choices to
celebrate BenRiach’s tenth birthday, as
the tasting notes show.
