Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Bottled by: The Alistair Walker Whisky Company 70cl / 58.3%
A 10-year-old Benriach 2011 bottled by Alistair Walker for the Infrequent Flyers series in late 2021.
This 2011 Benriach was finished in a virgin oak barrel, which yielded 272 bottles at a hefty 58.3% and is presumably responsible for the very tempting rich deep amber colour this Benriach now displays.
