Connoisseurs Choice 2005
from Benriach Distillery (cask strength)
Passion for single malt Scotch whisky has been at the heart of our family business for four generations. This range is an ever-changing collection of unique perspectives on distilleries’ own bottlings, non-chill-filtered single cask and small batch expressions bottled at cask strength — exceptional one-offs.
Nose
HONEYCOMB and sweet RED APPLE give way to tart GRAPEFRUIT ZEST. VANILLA and LEMON PEEL lead to undertones of GORSE FLOWER.
Taste
MANGO and PINEAPPLE flavours are balanced by soft BLACK PEPPER. CRYSTALLISED VIOLETS develop alongside MIXED NUTS and MARSHMALLOW.
Finish
Medium-bodied and long with lingering TROPICAL FRUIT and charred OAK.
