BenRiach 27 Years 1991 Cask 1850 is a rare single-cask Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky, released as part of BenRiach's Batch 16 Single Cask series. Distilled on 24 October 1991, the whisky matured for 27 years in a Madeira Hogshead before being bottled in 2019. Only 287 bottles were produced from Cask 1850.
The Madeira Hogshead maturation gives this exceptionally mature BenRiach a rich combination of baked citrus, sweet confectionery, roasted coffee and spice. At 53.9% ABV, it is presented at cask strength, retaining considerable intensity and concentration.
This is a particularly collectible expression for enthusiasts interested in single-cask BenRiach releases, long-aged Scotch whisky and unusual cask maturation. The combination of the 1991 vintage, 27-year age statement, specific cask number and limited 287-bottle outturn gives it strong provenance for collectors.
