Balmenach Signatory Vintage Cask Strength Collection Single Cask #3 Whisky 17 Year Old · 2008 Vintage
In stock
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.
