This item is archived.

This is an older BenRiach Cask release that is no longer available.

From Batch 11 of BenRiach's vintage releases this 1998 single cask (5171), was bottled at 57.9% after 16 years. The whisky is unusually Triple Distilled  and was finished in a Pedro Ximenez Puncheon. 18 bottles have come into Canada exclusively to KWM.

Distiller’s Tasting Note:

Nose: A clean, gentle nose of date, fig and cocoa holds an elegant twist of fragrant herbs and nutmeg.

Taste: Vibrant oak spice, orange bitters and dark chocolate give exceptional depth. Stewed barley and orchard fruits softly roll through the long ever-changing palate.
