Description
The distillery think this intriguing single malt truly captures the peated Benriach character perfectly with wonderful overtones of sweet heather smoke combined with toasted oak, toffee, apples and nectarines. This is their first peated cask strength expression matured in a combination of Oloroso sherry casks and bourbon barrels.
