Benriach Tawny Port Finish Single Cask #3111 Whisky 38 Year Old · 1977 Vintage

Colour

Deep tawny amber with copper-gold highlights and a mahogany glow, a warm, port-influenced hue.

Nose

Opulent nose of sun-dried dark fruit and tawny sweetness: fig, prune and raisin mingle with orange zest, caramelized sugar and vanilla. Port-cask integration lends a rich, wine-kissed warmth, complemented by nutmeg spice, polished oak and a hint of almond, suggesting a velvety, dessert-like depth even before the first sip.

Palate

Silky, full-bodied palate rich with tawny sweetness. Dried fig and raisin unfold alongside orange peel, toffee and dark chocolate. Spices—cinnamon, nutmeg, clove—waft through the warmth, supported by refined oak tannins. A long, port-forward finish hints at leather and espresso, leaving a lingering, luxurious depth.

Finish

Long, velvety finish driven by Tawny Port influence: raisin and fig sweetness mingles with orange zest, toasted spice and polished oak. A warm, red-fruited fade lingers with refined elegance.
