Benriach Malting Season 1st Edition Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky 9 Year Old · 2012 Vintage
In stock
Benriach is one of just two remaining distilleries in Speyside to distill whisky using malted barley from its own floor maltings, celebrating a tradition which started when the distillery was first founded by John Duff in 1898.
Compromised of just 23 barrels, only 6672 bottles have been made. With a beautiful barley gold Cask-imported colour, it is matured in bourbon and American Virgin Oak Casks. This gives a luxuriously nutty dram. With a phenomenal richness of character, this dram is a tribute to Benriach's founder and the slow craft of his historic maltings, all in the pursuit of exceptional flavour.

Tasting Notes
Nose
Floor-malted barley leads the aroma—biscuity, malt-forward with a delicate honeyed sweetness. Toasted almond and hazelnut mingle with vanilla from bourbon and virgin oak, while wisps of orchard fruit and warm spice add depth, creating a luxuriously nutty, richly inviting nose.
