Benrinnes Aged 10 Years Single Malt Scotch Whisky Batch 16 – That Boutique-Y Whisky Company (500ml)
Volume: 500ml ABV: 56.8% Age: 10 Years Old Country: Scotland
That Boutique-y Whisky Company bottles single malts, single grains and bourbons from a variety of renowned distilleries as well as producing award-winning blended malts and blends. These whiskies are adorned with cultish graphic novel-style labels.
The 1800s weren’t kind to Benrinnes, one of the many whisky distilleries in the Speyside region. First it was destroyed by a flood, then its owner went bankrupt, then its new owner went bankrupt too, and then it was ravaged by a fire! Luckily, the 1900s have been much nicer for the Benrinnes distillery, and they’ve been able to produce some excellent whiskies. Up until 2007/2008, they practiced partial triple distillation, which you can learn all about from Pete McPeat and Jack Washback on the label of this Benrinnes. Or, at least you can learn about it from one of them, anyway.
