Benriach Authenticus Peated 30 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700ml
In 1898, John Duff built the Speyside Distillery, BenRiach. It is one of the few distilleries with its own on-site floor malting and draws its water from the Burnside Springs.
Benriach Authenticus Peated 30 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky uses a richly peated, malted barley as the cereal varietal. Warm overtones of rich peat reek, in harmony with spiced oak throughout this rare peated single malt, continuing to creamy vanilla, summer fruits, and fresh herbs.
ollowing on from the 21 and 25 year old expressions of Authenticus, BenRiach has now added its oldest variant yet to the lineup. The nose offers orchard fruits, honey, polished oak, and vanilla-tinged peat smoke. Full and fruity on the palate, with sweet peat having a presence, plus milk chocolate and licorice. The finish is relatively long, with citrus fruit, ashy smoke, and a lingering herbal note. - Gavin Smith, whiskyadvocate.com
