Tasting Notes

Benriach The Original Ten is a delightful single malt that captivates the senses with its harmonious blend of fruity, baked, and smoky notes. Imagine biting into a ripe nectarine, where the juicy sweetness mingles with the aroma of honeydew melon, enveloping you in a refreshing embrace. As you sip, flavors of freshly baked croissants dipped in creamy coffee and cinnamon rolls unfurl, complemented by the subtle earthiness of orchard fruits and a delicate whiff of peat smoke. The finish lingers with nutty malt, vanilla pod, and apricot, leaving a lasting impression of indulgence. Meticulously crafted by master blender Dr. Rachel Barrie, this 10-year-old whisky is a testament to Benriach's artistry, skillfully marrying the influences of bourbon barrels, sherry casks, and virgin oak casks into a beautifully balanced and multifaceted expression.
