Many years ago, the BenRiach distillery defied convention and started to peat a proportion of our spirit, returning to the original Speyside character and flavour of malts typical of the nineteenth century. Matured in a combination of Oloroso Sherry casks and Bourbon barrels, Peated Cask Strength Batch 1 is non chill filtered, natural colour and bottled at 56%, so it can be experienced as if sampled from the source straight from the cask. Warming oak, orchard fruits culminating in a sweet heather smoke.
nextSectionNOSE Rich orchard fruits, honey and toasted oak. COLOR Summer Gold. TASTE Ripe pear, nectarine and malt sweetness, with a finishing note of almond and spiced vanilla. SMOKE Trace
