Benrinnes 1992 Casks of Distinction 30 Year Old (Cask #9956) is a rare official single cask release from a distillery better known for powering big-name blends than appearing on labels. Matured in an Oloroso & PX sherry-seasoned cask and bottled in 2022 at a punchy 51.9% ABV, this is a proper Speyside sherry cask for drinkers who like weight, depth and a bit of muscle behind the sweetness.

Tasting Notes (typical profile for long-aged Oloroso/PX matured Speyside)
Nose: Dark dried fruits (fig, raisin), polished oak, treacle and chocolate, with a hint of walnut and orange peel.
Palate: Rich and mouth-coating — dates, molasses, fruitcake and espresso, balanced by leathery oak spice and a slightly savoury edge.
Finish: Long, warming and drying, with lingering dark fruit, cocoa and spiced oak.

Why This Bottle Is Worth Bidding On
- Official Benrinnes single malt is comparatively uncommon, and the distillery’s robust spirit style can be superb with long sherry maturation.
- 30 years + single cask + 51.9% ABV is a strong spec for collectors who want rarity without sacrificing intensity.
- The stated outturn of 325 bottles keeps it genuinely limited, and the Casks of Distinction series tends to attract buyers looking for “proper” cask-led releases.

Condition / Notes for Buyers
