Benriach Curiositas Peated Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky 10 Year Old

Curiositas is a heavily peated expression from BenRiach that combines soft sweet fruits, with bold bonfire smoke. The initial sweetness and fruit is followed by an avalanche of peat smoke, and savoury flavours of heather, nuts, oak wood, and spices.

"initially medicinal on the nose, with tarmac and overt peat.Typical Benriach honey, fruit and oak emerge with time.Sweet and smoky on the palate, with a touch of iodine , nuts, dried fruits and lots of spicy oak. The finish features wood preservative and sweeter notes."
