Cask Strength Single Cask

Bottled by Signatory Vintage at cask strength, this Balmenach was distilled in 2008 and bottled in 2026 at 17 years old. Matured in a single Oloroso sherry cask and bottled at 57.8% ABV, it is a full-bodied Speyside single malt with a style shaped as much by the cask as by the distillery’s naturally weighty spirit.

Oloroso casks tend to suit Balmenach particularly well, bringing extra depth and richness to a whisky that already has plenty of structure.

Tasting Notes

Colour

Dense dark amber with coppery highlights and mahogany undertones, a rich, sherry-tinted hue that speaks of depth, age, and the cask’s generous influence.

Nose

Raisins and dark toffee weave with orange peel and cocoa, embraced by polished oak and a gentle, warming spice that hints at the sherry-inflected richness.

Palate

Rich and mouth-coating, the palate unfolds with dried fruit and treacle, threaded by dark chocolate and orange-peel zest. Sweet spices bloom against seasoned sherry oak, delivering a full-bodied, warming texture that lingers with a long, refined echo of cocoa and oak.

Finish

A long, warming finish that lingers with dark fruit, cocoa and gently drying oak.

Balmenach
(bal-MEN-ach) Balmenach was licensed in 1824 by James MacGregor at Balminoch Farm, near Cromdale in Speyside, making it one of the older licensed distilleries in the region. The site later passed to Glenlivet Distillers in 1897 and became part of DCL in the 1920s, with much of its production used for blended Scotch rather than official single malt bottlings.
