Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Distillery Bottling
A very exciting release as this is the 1st UK exclusive single cask from BenRiach to be bottled in the last few years. Single cask #286, a peated malt was distilled in 1994 and aged in a single hogshead for 19 years. Bottled at cask strength in 2013 with only 215 bottles filled.
BenRiach Cask 286 Producer Notes
Colour: Deep harvest gold.
Nose: Intense waves of spiced oak with creamy vanilla over apricots and peaches, all backed by a delicate, sweet honeyed peat.
Taste: A combination of delicate soft fruits and sweet oak spices, covered by dramatic bursts of intense wood smoke, which mellow and mingle with hints of melon and pineapple in the lasting after-note.
