A rich and sweet whisky from Benrinnes distillery, on the northern shoulder of Ben Rinnes, 700 feet above sea level. 

Tasting Notes:

Appearance: Bright mahogany

Nose: Chocolate liqueurs, well-worn leather, soft smoke and dense floral aromas open on the nose, with pine needles, polished wood and dried fruit underneath 

Palate:  sweet and rich, offering rum-like fruitiness, sultanas, sticky dates and charred, smoky oak.

Finish: Dries out slightly in the finish, where there is also a 'catch' which might be taken for peat-smoke. Medium length, leaving a faintly sherried aftertaste.

Land: Scotland

Distillery: Benrinnes

Alcohol by volume: 43%
