The BenRiach Quarter Casks
Review by The BenRiach
- Colour
Burnished gold.
- Nose
Candied peel and caramelised green pears with a distant hint of eucalyptus. Black vanilla pods and fresh white pepper add a warm contrast to the rich oak nose.
- Palate
Crisp lemon zest and sweet oak spice with a dusting of icing sugar. Ripe pear and honeyed apricots combine with freshly stewed barley, adding fantastic depth to the long palate.
- Note
-
This unique single malt has been matured in quarter casks. A smaller cask allows for more interaction between the wood and the spirit, giving the whisky a great depth of flavour and aroma in a shorter period of time. Bottled at 46%, non chill filtered and natural colour, this is a full-flavoured whisky with fantastic depth.
