Description

Benrinnes 26 Year Old 1996 Cask Strength Collection Signatory Vintage 70cl 53.5% is a well-aged Speyside single malt Scotch whisky bottled by the respected independent bottler Signatory Vintage as part of its Cask Strength Collection. Distilled on 24 October 1996 and bottled on 23 November 2022, this release spent 26 years maturing before being bottled at its natural strength of 53.5% ABV.

This expression was drawn from two hogshead casks, numbered 11687 and 11702, producing a total outturn of 527 bottles. That combination of long maturation, cask strength presentation, and limited availability makes it especially appealing to enthusiasts who enjoy mature independent bottlings with strong character.

Benrinnes is known for a weighty and robust Speyside spirit style, and this hogshead-matured edition offers a different angle compared with the more familiar sherried examples from the distillery. Retailer tasting profiles highlight a complex whisky with orchard fruit, nuts, vanilla, herbs, baked spice, and waxy richness.
