The BenRiach 21 year old Authenticus
Review by The BenRiach
- Colour
Rich golden.
- Nose
An explosion of smoke and peat, in combination with teasing hints of honey, apples and spices.
- Palate
Rich peat, in perfect harmony with honey, chocolate, raisins and oak wood, followed by a cascade of spices rolling over the palate.
- Note
-
The 'big brother' to Curiositas, BenRiach 'Authenticus' is another peated expression of BenRiach, this time matured for a minimum of 21 years.
Strictly limited to just 800 six-packs per annum, Authenticus is a rare and much sought after bottling.
Bottled at 46% alc. vol., at natural colour and non chill filtered.
The BenRiach 'Authenticus' 21yo has been discontinued and has been replaced by the 'Authenticus' 25yo.
