Released as part of Signatory Vintage’s Cask Strength Collection, this whisky was finished in a First Fill Amontillado Sherry Hogshead, Cask #101, adding a distinctly dry, nutty and savoury sherry influence to Benriach’s naturally fruit-forward spirit. Bottled at a powerful 58.4% ABV with an outturn of just 341 bottles, it combines dark chocolate, dried fruits and roasted nuts with firm oak and warming spice. The result is a concentrated and characterful Benriach that showcases the more elegant, structured side of Amontillado sherry maturation.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDistillery:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Benriach Distillery\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBottler:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Signatory Vintage\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSeries:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Cask Strength Collection\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVintage:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 2015\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAge:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 11 Years Old\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eABV:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 58.4%\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCask Type:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e First Fill Amontillado Sherry Hogshead Finish\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCask Number:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 101\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOutturn:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 341 Bottles\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFounded in 1988, Signatory Vintage has built an outstanding reputation for selecting distinctive casks from across Scotland and bottling them with minimal intervention. Its Cask Strength Collection focuses on individual casks presented at their natural strength, allowing the character of both the distillery and maturation vessel to remain fully expressive. Benriach, founded in 1898 near Elgin in Speyside, is particularly well known for the versatility of its spirit, producing styles ranging from bright and fruit-driven through to heavily peated expressions. In this bottling, Benriach’s naturally approachable fruit character is given a drier and more structured edge through the First Fill Amontillado finish, creating a whisky defined by roasted nuts, dark fruit, oak and refined sherry character.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTasting Notes:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe aroma opens with roasted hazelnuts and walnuts, followed by dry oak, subtle sherry richness and a gentle layer of woody spice. With time, hints of raisins, dried orange peel and dark chocolate begin to appear beneath the nuttier elements. The palate is powerful and full-bodied, delivering dark chocolate, raisins and toasted nuts alongside a firm, slightly bitter cask spice that gives the whisky excellent structure. The Amontillado influence brings a distinctly dry and savoury character rather than overt sweetness, with seasoned oak and delicate spice building through the middle. The finish is long, dry and warming, leaving lingering walnut, oak, dark chocolate and restrained sherry notes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Signatory Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54633837494582,"sku":null,"price":209.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0738\/2558\/3414\/files\/SVBenriach11.webp?v=1790160872","url":"https:\/\/hiliquor.com.au\/products\/signatory-vintage-2015-benriach-11-year-old-single-cask-single-malt-scotch-whisky","provider":"Hi_liquor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
