Scotch Single Malt A-Z

A beautiful example of the Benriach distillery style, this single cask selection offers lashings of fresh fruit salad and lime zest flavours, with plenty of orange and the classic peachy-honeyed the distillery is known for. The palate offers a viscous, honeyed and again peachy flavour, with a touch of dried tobacco.

Hailing from the Benriach distillery, this 11 year old shows the strong influence of its finishing cask, a ruby port puncheon. An intriguing combination of strawberry milkshake and marzipan, with a hint of Vimto. Warm buttered popcorn also makes an appearance. Creamy and soft; fruity and super tangy - Maoams and Opal Fruits (Google it)… A fruit basket of cranberries, blood orange, peaches and apricots, with a touch of stewed raisins. Vibrant and lively; very spicy towards the end.

This special release from Benriach is the first expression in a century to be produced entirely using barley malted from Benriach's historic floor maltings. This whisky has been matured in both bourbon and virgin oak barrels. This brings out notes of barley sugar, almond fudge, orchard apples, vanilla and honeyed pear. A long lasting finish is full of malty notes.

The Benriach distillery just near Longmorn in Speyside is famous for its fruity spirit - peaches, apricot and honey tones join banana and apples. The tasting notes from bottlers Hunter Laing & Co. speak of a complex and waxy mouthfeel, with a long and enjoyably drying finish.
