Tasting Notes
Imagine a whisky that takes you on a sensory voyage, capturing the essence of autumn's bounty. The Benriach Malting Season (Second Edition) is a masterpiece born from the distillery's historic malting floor, where concerto barley is carefully hand-malted and slowly kilned, preserving the raw flavors of the harvest. As you uncork the bottle, the aroma unfolds like a tapestry, revealing notes of zesty orange peel, creamy vanilla, and a rich, malty embrace, mingled with hints of almond and the alluring char of oak barrels. On the palate, it's a harmonious dance of caramel sweetness, earthy smoke, and drying spices, punctuated by a burst of citrus vibrancy. The finish lingers delicately, leaving a sweet, gentle caress on the senses. Matured in first-fill bourbon casks and bottled at a robust 48.9% ABV, this whisky celebrates the art of malting and the distillery's commitment to preserving tradition.
