The Old Malt Cask line of single cask single malts was created by the Laing brothers in 1998. They've since bottled countless legendary single malt and continue to surprise and delight connoisseurs with their diverse range of exceptionally selected single casks. Unlike K&L's Exclusive single casks, Old Malt Cask is traditionally bottled at 100 proof, but always without chillfiltration or coloring of any kind. The Laings selected a diverse range of malts to celebrate 25 years in the single cask business, picking out choice casks and bottling them in the gorgeous retro packaging. This wonderful Benrinnes was distilled in 2003 and filled into a first fill Canasta Sherry Butt. Canasta is a brand of cream sherry prodced bny William & Humbert made by blending dry oloroso sherry and Pedro Ximinez. The Benrinnes Distillery was founded in 1826 by Peter Mackenzie not far from the village of Aberlour. It was famous for many decades for an usual, Mortlach style, partial triple distillation and great old gorgeous worm tub condensers. A stalwart blenders malt, it is capable of producing exceptional whiskies like this one. Finding an old heavily sherried Benrinnes is difficult in its own right, but one so carefully selected at such a wonderful price is nearly unheard of. We're very proud and pleased to be stocking the exceptional Old Malt Cask 25th Anniversary line exclusively in the USA.
