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.
