Expect maple honey, cocoa and baked forest fruit on the nose. The palate brings maraschino cherry, baked orange and hazelnut, finishing with sultana and spiced mocha.
Benriach was founded in 1898 near Elgin and is one of the few Scottish distilleries with its own working floor maltings. The Twelve is the richer, sherry-led partner to The Original Ten in its core range.
A fine choice for single malt drinkers who enjoy sherry casks and dried fruit, and a considered gift for a whisky lover.
