- Description
- This Douglas Laing Provenance single cask of Benriach offers a rare independent bottling of the typically forthcoming Speyside distillery, matured for 6 years in a hogshead from 2010 to 2017. The spirit reveals Benriach's characteristic balance of malt sweetness, subtle smoke, and orchard fruit, with light vanilla and spice from the wood. Clean and well-integrated on the palate, with moderate weight and length. Perfect for collectors seeking single-cask Speyside that hasn't been heavily influenced by sherry or other cask finishes.
