At the end of the 19th century, specifically in 1898, the Benriach distillery was founded in the Spey valley. What differentiates the quality of the spirit for Benriach are the special distillation methods, the ingredients used, the distinctive copper stills, and the high-quality barrels chosen for maturation.
The Benriach 12 years Speyside Single Malt matures for 12 years in barrels from bourbon whiskey, sherry wine, and port wine, acquiring a golden bronze color. Rich and impressive aromatic and flavorful character reminiscent of cooked forest fruits, maraschino cherry, baked apple, and baked orange combined with sweet flavors reminiscent of cinnamon, maple honey, dried fruits, raisin, sultana, and fruit cake.
Notes of mocha and cocoa pleasantly balance with the nutty character, leaving a rich and long-lasting finish.
