As Edward Teller probably once said, "When you come to the end of all the light you know, it's time to take the step into Darkness!". This intense Benrinnes was finished in fresh, first-fill Pedro Ximénez casks that were specially rebuilt to be just one tenth of the size of a standard butt for three months. The greatly increased surface area to volume ratio of these casks helped develop even greater richness and concentration in this magnificent Speyside nectar.
Rich, deep oak alongside jammy fruit, greengages and nut oil. Soon you're into crème brûlée, prunes, Corinth raisins and hints of anise, sticky toffee pudding and bread dough.
Big, sticky dried fruits, wedding cake with a little marzipan, unsweetened liquorice and bitter marmalade.
Some Christmas spices, dried cherries, clove and stained glass window cookies.
All the desserts. Dark, delicious and creamy, you could use this whisky to catch yourself a Gregg Wallace.
