Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with coppery highlights and a warm, honey-gold glow.
Nose
Rich and inviting, this Benrinnes opens with orchard fruit and honeyed citrus, woven with vanilla and toasty oak. Subtle sherry sweetness brings dried fig and date, almond and cocoa, while a gentle spice folds into a warm, nutty depth.
Palate
Silky and lightly creamy, this Benrinnes presents orchard fruit, ripe apples and pears, lifted by citrus zest. Sherry notes mingle with dried raisin and orange peel, softened by vanilla, honey and toasted oak. A gentle spice of cinnamon and white pepper lingers, leading to a smooth, nutty finish with a hint of almonds.
Finish
Elegant and lingering, the finish unfolds with gentle orchard fruit sweetness, fading into warm oak and soft spice. A subtle nutty note lingers, tapering to a refined, long, silky fade that leaves a softly polished impression.
