Benriach The Twelve 12yo 700ml

Benriach The Twelve Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky is produced by Benriach Distillery, a long-established Speyside producer in Scotland founded in 1898 and recognised for its layered cask maturation approach and balanced house style. This expression is matured for at least twelve years in a combination of ex-bourbon, sherry and port casks, resulting in a richer and more complex profile that highlights both fruit depth and oak influence. Deep amber in colour, it presents a rich and polished appearance in the glass. The nose opens with aromas of baked orchard fruits, maple honey and cocoa layered with notes of sultana, orange peel and gentle spice. The palate is smooth and full-bodied, offering flavours of stewed peach, dark chocolate and caramel with underlying notes of cinnamon, toasted nuts and a subtle oak richness, delivering depth and balance. The finish is long and warming, with lingering dried fruit, soft spice and a touch of cocoa. Benriach The Twelve Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a rich and approachable expression, offering layered complexity while remaining smooth and accessible.
