Benrinnes Carn Mor Strictly Limited Single Malt Scotch Whisky 12 Year Old · 2008 Vintage

Colour

Rich deep amber with coppery highlights and a lacquered mahogany edge, glowing with warm, sunset-bronze depth in the glass.

Nose

Ripe orchard fruit and citrus peel ride a bed of rich sherry: dates, fig, and raisin layered with toffee, vanilla, and toasted almond. Spices—nutmeg, clove—and a hint of orange zest drift through polished oak, giving a warm, wine-drenched aroma that promises depth and sweetness.

Palate

Silky, medium-full on the palate, with rich dark fruits—plum, fig, raisin—layered with chocolate and a touch of coffee. Spices unfold gently: cinnamon, clove, orange zest. The oak is refined, giving a polished sweetness that lingers into a long, warm, sherried finish.

Finish

Sherry-kissed finish lingers with dark cherry, fig and cocoa, beneath polished oak. Spices unfold slowly, leaving a warm, rounded fade of orange zest and vanilla.
