Benriach Authenticus Peated Single Malt Scotch Whisky 30 Year Old

Colour

Deep amber with mahogany depth and copper-gold highlights.

Nose

Intense peat smoke weaves with luxurious sherry sweetness, unfolding dried fig and raisin, orange zest, and cocoa. Velvet vanilla and leather join the aged oak, with a faint coastal mineral note, an elegant, cellar-dressed aroma that promises depth.

Palate

Silky and full-bodied, the palate opens with restrained peat smoke, warming with rich sherry sweetness. Dark cherry, fig and date mingle with toffee and cacao, eased by vanilla and spice. Oak adds depth, a touch of coastal mineral, and a long finish of peat, chocolate and dried fruits, softly lingering.

Finish

Long, velvety finish where peat smoke lingers like a warm ember. Rich sherry sweetness coats dried fig and prune, with dark chocolate, orange zest and gentle spice. The peat stays refined yet persistent, fading into toasted oak and a whisper of mineral smoke that lingers warmly.
