Benriach The 21yo Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

Description

Honey gold in colour, this whisky will caress your nose with notes of berry fruit, orchard apple, wild honey and a touch of mountain oak spice. Flavours of candied grape, rich cocoa and smoked pine nut are accompanied with a caramelised pear and honey smoke finish.

This exquisite single malt has been crafted from a combination of unpeated and peated spirit and four cask matured for at least 21 years in bourbon barrels, sherry casks, virgin oak casks and Bordeaux red wine casks. During long maturation, Benriach's sweet Speyside smoke mellows and integrates with the fruit, malt and oak. After twenty one years, rich layering developes into an elegant honey smoke, enriched through multi-layeres cask maturation. The whisky from each cask type, imbued with particular flavour characteristic, is then expertly married together to create a rich and elegant single malt, layered with lush orchard fruit and toasted pine wood with a honey smoke finish. All in perfect balance.
