A single hogshead Benriach that leans into balance rather than theatrics. Distilled in 2012 and bottled in 2024, this is bright, clean Speyside whisky with just enough depth to keep things interesting. Non-chill-filtered and naturally coloured, it shows Benriach’s fruit-driven side with a creamy malt backbone and a neat, tidy finish.
Fresh and lively with bright notes of orchard fruits, crisp apple, juicy pear, and a touch of white peach. Smooth vanilla weaves through the bouquet, complemented by subtle toasted oak and a faint floral lift.
Elegantly layered, opening with soft honey and creamy vanilla before revealing the natural sweetness of barley. Gentle spices - nutmeg and a hint of white pepper add warmth without overpowering the delicate fruit and malt character.
Refined and smooth, with lingering notes of honeyed grain, light oak, and a touch of spice. Balanced and satisfying, it leaves a clean, slightly sweet impression that invites another sip.
