    Balmenach 18 Year Old 2001 (cask 800410) - Benchmark (Murray McDavid)

    A tasty Speyside single malt from the Balmenach Distillery! This one was distilled in 2001 and left to age in an American oak cask. Before Murray McDavid bottled the whisky, it saw a finish in a bourbon barrel. It was released for the Benchmark bottling series at 50.9% ABV.
