Benriach Single Cask #3791 Whisky 14 Year Old · 2005 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with mahogany depth and coppery edges, a warm sherry-gold glow.

Nose

Sherry-drenched bouquet of raisin, fig and candied orange peel, weaving with dark cacao, toffee and almond. Rich vanilla and toasted oak frame spices—cinnamon and clove—with a warming, resinous finish and a glossy, velvety perfume.

Palate

Silky, full-bodied palate with a bold sherry influence: dried cherries and fig mingle with orange zest, toasted almond, and dark chocolate. Rich oak and a velvety mouthfeel cradle spice notes of cinnamon and clove, building toward a long, warm finish replete with cocoa nibs, leather, and a hint of tobacco.

Finish

Long, luxurious finish that lingers with sherry-soaked fruit—raisin, fig and citrus zest—woven through toasted oak. Spices rise softly—cinnamon and clove—mellowing into dark chocolate and a warm, peppery fade that lingers well after the last sip.
