Description:
Benriach Quarter Cask Bottling Note
Peated Benriach, matured in tiny quarter casks! The smaller casks encourage greater interaction between the spirit, the oak and the air allowing the whisky to take on lots of character in a shorter period of time. This 46% expression, bottled with neither chill filtration nor artificial colouring, is no exception.
Tasting Note
Nose: Peat, barley, oak and pear drops with further orchard fruit depth emerging.
Palate: Bonfires and apples. Peaches too, with smoky vanilla.
Finish: Toasty oak smoke and hazelnut.
