Benrinnes 1974 Rare Malt 21 Year Old / 60.4%
Until 2007, Benrinnes had a unique triple distillation process that resulted in a single malt highly prized by blenders for its distinct "meaty" quality. So much so in fact, that none was spared for an official distillery bottling until United Distillers included a 15 year old within the Flora & Fauna collection. A popular addition, it was one of the few retained as a permanent release, and only a spartan number of limited edition distillery bottlings have ever followed.
This 1974 vintage is part of the historic Rare Malt Selection.
The Rare Malt Selection was a historic selection of single malt whiskies from operational and lost distilleries that were released by Diageo between 1995 and 2005. As with the Flora & Fauna series, they were often from lesser-seen single malt distilleries.
