Master of Malt Benrinnes 13-year-old is a Speyside single malt Scotch whisky bottled at 50.1% ABV. Benrinnes is often associated with a weightier, more robust style than many Speyside malts, and a Pedro Ximénez cask suggests a sweeter, richer influence from sherry-seasoned wood.
For a novice drinker, that usually means a fuller-bodied whisky with layered malt, oak, and dark-fruit character rather than a light or delicate profile. The higher strength may also bring extra intensity, so it can reward a small splash of water.
