BenRiach The Smoky Twelve 12 Year Old Three Cask Matured Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky 750ml
BenRiach The Smoky Twelve is a peated Speyside single malt from BenRiach Distillery, aged a minimum of 12 years using a blend of peated and unpeated spirit matured across three cask types: ex-bourbon barrels, ex-sherry casks, and Marsala wine casks. Crafted under Master Blender Rachel Barrie, this expression carries natural cask-imparted color with no added coloring.
Bottled at 46% ABV, the nose brings sweet earthy smoke, dried fruit, toasted almond, and orange zest, layered with vanilla cream and jelly bean sweetness. The palate delivers dark chocolate, honeycomb, apricot, brown sugar, and baking spice, finishing long with lingering peat, malt, and candied orange.
A well balanced entry point into peated Speyside whisky, this bottle offers depth and complexity well beyond its price point, making it a great choice for both newcomers to smoky Scotch and seasoned single malt collectors.
