BenRiach
Benriach 16yr
£99.00
An exciting addition to the Benriach collection, with a shiny new unpeated 16-year-old single malt! Matured in a selection of bourbon, sherry, and new oak casks, The Sixteen is based on a revised recipe of its much-adored predecessor, Benriach 16 Year Old. With a generously fruity core, supported by layers of creamy malt and toasted spice, it's a splendid sipper from the Speyside-based distillery.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose Apple turnover with dustings of brown sugar, biscuity malt, a hint of apricot, and richly toasted oak.
Palate Silky layers of creamy barley, peach, and apricot lead to sweet notes of apple crumble and cooked plums.
Finish Honeyed nuts arrive towards the finish, with more soft, creamy malt, a touch of oak char, and warming, woody spice.
