- Description
- Distilled in 1991 and aged in a single hogshead for 31 years before bottling by Berry Bros & Rudd in 2023, this Benriach shows the deep, oxydative character of extended wood contact. Leather, wax, and musty aromas precede a palate of spiced custard, dried apricots, praline, and cardamom fudge. At 48.3% ABV, it achieves richness without heat, speaking to three decades of slow maturation. A historical snapshot of Speyside character from an earlier era.
