Benriach 12 Year Old Berry Bros

Benriach single cask #43217/8. A 12-year old bottling of the fruity Speyside malt. Berry's Own Selection. Benriach John Duff commissioned the Elgin based architect Charles C. Doig to design Benriach Distillery which was duly established in 1898 just south of Elgin and complete with a siding connecting Benriach Distillery directly to the great North of Scotland Railway and the scotch blenders down south. But Benriach Distillery opened just as the whisky bubble burst and was forced to closed in 1900 and remained closed until 1965. Benriach’s maltings did continued to operate but finally closed in 1999. An iconic Scottish malt whisky distillery complete with a Doig pagoda roof over the malt kiln. The Benriach Distillery range includes limited releases of triple distilled, peated and un-peated single malt whiskies. Benriach Distillery participates in the Spirit of Speyside Whisky Festival On the nose, pear skin mingles with vanilla aromas. The oaky presence is subdued by emerging melon and a little grape stalk. The palate is playful, fruity with some leafy and creamy texture drifting away with a soft graceful bow.
