Benriach Peated Single Cask #4835 Whisky 12 Year Old · 2009 Vintage
In stock
A Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky as intriguing and extraordinary as Benriach could not have come to be without a unique Whisky making heritage. Dating back from 1898, when founder John Duff built his distillery. Ruggedly beautiful, Benriach stands on the site of the old Riach farm in north Speyside, drawing water from a mineral-rich aquifer, deep beneath the distillery. The Cask Edition #4835 has been selectively bottled exclusively for the UK.
On the nose there are heady aromas of woodsmoke, pear and freshly kilned malt. Black cherry and date oil come forward on the palate, complimented by velvety espresso and dark chocolate ganache.
