Review by The BenRiach

Colour

Rich gold mahogany.

Nose

A full, sumptuous nose consisting of dark orange marmalade, rich fig syrup and sweet dates. A dusting of cocoa and cinnamon followed by a gentle hint of garden mint adds a luxurious character.

Palate

Rich, velvety dark chocolate fondant topped with glazed maraschino cherries develops to plum cordial and spiced honey. The long finish is rounded with a gentle, earthy balance of nutmeg, stewed barley and old vintage leather.

Finish

A rich body laden with dark Mediterranean fruits and a complementary balance of warm spices and delicate oak characters.
