Benriach Temporis Peated Single Malt Scotch Whisky 21 Year Old
In stock
This new release for Summer 2018 is a marriage of whisky matured in four different casks – ex-Bourbon barrels, virgin oak, PX and oloroso Sherry casks.
Temporis, which means ‘time’ in Latin, is said to have been inspired by the style of Speyside single malts produced during the 19th century when BenRiach first opened.
Bottled at 46% abv and non-chill-filtered, Temporis 21 Year Old has notes of honeyed peat, roasted orchard fruits and tropical pineapple.
Rachel Barrie, master blender for BenRiach, said: ‘This four cask matured and peated combination produces a superbly balanced malt, retaining BenRiach’s signature sweet, fruit-laden style and peated tradition.’
A meaty-broth like peated malt with all four casks used all in evidence here, a warming hug of a Benriach.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber-gold with coppery highlights and a warm, honeyed glow.
Nose
A deep, sooty peat smoke with barbecue char and aromatic marinades; toasted raisin bread, anchovy essence, and old tea-chest hints mingle with tarry wood and earthy blueberry to form a savory, fruit-laden bouquet.
Palate
Smoky rum and raisin on the palate, with sooty blueberry and aromatic marinated BBQ-charred meat notes. Fragrant loose-leaf tea, gunpowder and clove spice mingle, with a curried chutney-like warmth.
Finish
Charred, gnarly meat lingers with sooty barbecue notes, while raisin and blueberry echo on the finish, framed by lingering fragrant tea and earthy, spicy smoke.
