THE WHISKY
The Peated Single Malt Scotch Whiskey 'Benriach' 2011 10 Years by Duncan Taylor is part of the 'Single Cask' line, i.e. obtained from a single barrel, synonymous with very high quality. It was produced at Benriach Distillery, a renowned Speyside distillery founded in 1898. Distilled in 2011 and aged in a single peated Sherry cask for 10 years, it was released in 2021 as Cask Strenght whiskey at 54.7%, without cold filtration or dyes. Splendid whiskey with classic notes of red fruits and ripe plum tones, while the peaty element brings a satisfying smoke. Only 335 bottles produced.
THE DISTILLERY
Duncan Taylor was created with the noble intention of selecting and bottling the best spirits in the world. Without compromising on quality, this company has been pursuing its project since its foundation in 1938, collecting whiskey barrels dating back as far as 1864. The founder, Abe Rosenberg, was in fact an American passionate and expert in the Scottish whiskey trade who moved to Glasgow and founded Duncan Taylor & Co. Here he continued the sale but also began to select the best whiskey and single malts productions, very soon becoming a real point of reference in the art of trade and selection. With over 4000 casks collected, Duncan Taylor is still the undisputed leader in the spirit world today.
