JAMES EADIE BENRINNES 12 YEARS OLD SINGLE MALT SCOTCH WHISKY

James Eadie bottles this 12-year-old Benrinnes single malt from the Speyside distillery known for partial triple distillation and worm tub condensers that create heavy, meaty character distinct from typical floral Speyside profiles. Benrinnes sits at 226 meters elevation on the north side of Ben Rinnes mountain, where the unusual distillation method using six stills produces robust spirit with sulfurous notes that mellow during maturation. This independent bottling from James Eadie—a brand reviving the name of a 19th-century blender and bottler—showcases Benrinnes' substantial body and complex character through cask selection that highlights the distillery's idiosyncratic production methods, delivering richer texture and more assertive flavors than neighboring Speyside malts while maintaining the region's underlying fruit-forward foundation.
