Tasting Notes

Benriach 7 Year Old Moscatel Cask Finish (Darkness) is a delightful journey through a world of rich, indulgent flavors. The aroma enchants you with a medley of stewed berries, earthy vanilla, and a delightful hint of stroopwafel and coffee, setting the stage for a remarkable tasting experience. As you take your first sip, a burst of mint chocolate ice cream coats your palate, accompanied by the luxurious oiliness of walnuts and a refreshing touch of eucalyptus. The finish lingers with the comforting embrace of dark chocolate, leaving you longing for another sip of this exquisite dram. This expression of Benriach single malt Scotch whisky has been expertly finished in a Moscatel sherry octave cask, imparting a bold and concentrated sherried character that is the hallmark of the Darkness series.
