The Benriach 13-year Cask Finish is a rare and captivating expression from the Benriach distillery, renowned for its ability to experiment with various barrel finishes. This Scottish whisky has been expertly aged for 13 years, spending the final periods of its maturation in selected barrels that previously contained liquors or other spirits, giving this whisky a unique and complex character.

Pronounced in color with a deep amber hue, on the nose, the Benriach 13 years offers an enchanting combination of aromas. Notes of ripe fruit, such as plums and cherries, blend with accents of dark chocolate and a subtle, yet distinct, spicy trace reminiscent of cinnamon and nutmeg. With the addition of a bit of water, further nuances of vanilla and honey emerge, making the olfactory experience even more inviting.

On the palate, this whisky demonstrates a perfect harmonization between sweetness and spices. The initial taste is soft and velvety, with flavors of baked apple and caramel, which slowly give way to a moderate spice and persistent notes of dried fruit. The finish is long and pleasantly complex, leaving a lasting impression of dried fruit, spices, and a light touch of peat smoke.

Thanks to its rich complexity and harmonious balance of flavors, the Benriach 13-year Cask Finish is ideal for enjoying alone or accompanied by a pure cigar. Its packaging in an elegant tube also makes it a perfect gift for whisky enthusiasts who appreciate limited editions and distinctly unique expressions.

A true gem for connoisseurs, this whisky is a reflection of Benriach's artisanal excellence and a testament to the distillery's mastery in the art of barrel finishing.
