Benriach Single Bourbon Cask #4936 Whisky 25 Year Old · 1990 Vintage

Colour

Warm amber-gold with coppery edges and sunlit honey tones.

Nose

Bold vanilla and creamy toffee lead the nose, tempered by rich bourbon oak. Fresh apple and pear mingle with citrus zest, while almond, coconut and a touch of honey add warmth and texture. A refined lift from the 50.4% ABV hints at the premium, single-cask character.

Palate

Silky and richly rounded on the palate, with vanilla bean, golden toffee and honeyed orchard fruit. Bourbon-cask influence brings coconut, caramelized oak and subtle spice: cinnamon, nutmeg, and a touch of clove. A bright citrus zest hints through mid-palate, leading to a long, warm finish of oak, spice and gentle sweetness.

Finish

An expansive, lingering finish coats the palate with warm vanilla, toffee and creamy oak. Honeyed citrus peel blends with spiced almond and gentle tobacco, fading to a silky peppery glow. A hint of dried fruit lingers as the warmth of the ABV settles into a long, refined echo.
