Tasting Notes

Benrinnes 9 Year Old PX Cask - Rare Cask Series from GreatDrams is a truly indulgent whisky experience. This single malt spent most of its maturation in an oloroso cask, where it absorbed rich, sherried notes of dark fruits like raisins and prunes, along with enticing hints of winter spices. To add an extra layer of decadence, the whisky was then finished for nine months in a Pedro Ximénez cask, imparting luscious notes of creamy butterscotch, vanilla fudge, and sweet, jammy fruits. On the nose, you'll be greeted by warming layers of those sherried fruits and spices, underpinned by a rich, meaty malt character. The palate is a delightful journey through dark dried fruits, spice, vanilla biscuits, and toffee, all seamlessly interwoven. The finish lingers with the comforting flavors of butterscotch, vanilla fudge, and soft, sweet fruits, leaving you craving for another sip. With only 333 bottles available, this rare cask from Benrinnes is a true gem for whisky enthusiasts.
