Description

A 'partially' triple-distilled Speysider, this single malt from the Benrinnes distillery was bottled at 15 years for the Flora and Fauna series.

This is considered Benrinne’s first official release and offers a good insight into the distillery’s signature style.
 
A rich, sweet and smooth single malt whisky which sees Benrinnes’ fresh, green estery Speyside characteristics subsumed in its dark aromas. A moreish dram with plenty of body.

Serving Suggestion: Benrinnes works best served in a traditional whisky glass, neat or with a little water.

Tasting Notes

Nose: A rich nose, presenting an early impression of chocolate liqueurs - perhaps rum filled, although there is a light sherry-wood note as well. Light smokiness, and a dense floral note. 'Vintage car upholstery' describes it best. An evocative combination of old leather, oil, burnt rubber and exhaust fumes. 

Palate: Richly sweet, full, rum-like, with a centre palate impact. In spite of the sweetness, not cloying.

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.
