Benriach Madeira Finish Single Cask #5959 Whisky 20 Year Old · 1995 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with mahogany depth and coppery highlights.

Nose

Aromas of sun-dried fruit—raisin, fig and date—intertwined with orange zest and caramel. Madeira sweetness swirls with toasted almond, cocoa nib and vanilla, while gentle oak spice reinforces a warm, perfumed bouquet.

Palate

Silky and opulent, the palate delivers dark fruit compote—prune, fig and raisin—mingled with Madeira’s toasted sweetness. Caramel, toffee and vanilla unfold beside warm spice and orange zest, all held by a confident oak backbone. The finish is long, warming, with chocolatey depth and a whisper of leather lingering.

Finish

Madeira-kissed finish with raisin and fig, bright orange zest, and caramelized spice. It unfurls into velvety dark chocolate and toasted oak, lingering with warm molasses and a refined, nutty sweetness.
