A Powerful 10 Year Old Speyside Single Malt

While Speyside is often associated with elegant and fruit-forward whisky, Benrinnes offers something distinctly richer and more robust.

This North Star Benrinnes 10 Year Old combines youthful energy with a full decade of oak maturation. Bottling at 59.5% ABV preserves impressive flavour concentration, body and texture.

Expect a bold whisky built around:

Adding a small amount of water may reveal additional layers of fruit, sweetness and spice while softening the natural alcoholic intensity.

Benrinnes & Independent Bottlings

Benrinnes has historically been an important component of blended Scotch whisky, and official single malt bottlings have been relatively limited compared with many other established Speyside distilleries.

As a result, independent bottlers such as North Star Spirits provide enthusiasts with an excellent opportunity to experience Benrinnes in different cask types, ages and bottling strengths.

North Star has previously released a number of Benrinnes whiskies, including 8, 10 and 15-year-old expressions.
