BENRIACH LIMITED RELEASE
We continually fingerprint the extensive BenRiach inventory from our warehouses to identify very special casks. Each year we select a small number of these casks which display outstanding distinction of taste as a result of the many factors at play during the long maturation process. These are something to look out for as they are indeed rare and exceptional.
In July 2008 we release our 5th batch of the BenRiach Limited Release Single Cask bottlings, details of this and the previous 4 batches are listed below. Please note that we have not included information on any customer-specific or market-specific 'exclusive' BenRiach Ltd Rls bottlings.
