This 21 year old malt is part of Benriach's Wood Finish or Cask Finish range, where whiskies mature in refill American oak casks before spending a finishing period in a more active wine or fortified wine cask. In this case, it has been finished in ex-Tawny Port hogsheads!
<b>Producer's Tasting Note:</b><br> <b>Nose:</b> A perfect balance of fresh cranberries and warm white pepper develops to a combination of tart raspberries and boiled candy.<br> <b>Palate:</b> Delicious toasted oak spices and hints of orange peel develop to a lively contrast of wild red berry compote and sour cherries, followed by a rich stewed barley character.
The tasting notes are bang on here - this is a lovely mix of spice and warmth, with a subtle hint of caramel smell and a lingering, slight berry finish. Love this one. Any more port and it would be too far gone but it’s perfect.
