Founded in 1898, Benriach has made peated spirit since the early 1970s, which is unusual in Speyside. The smoke here is soft and sweet rather than coastal, so the fruit stays in front. Sip it neat or with a few drops of water, or use it in a smoky highball with soda. It pairs well with smoked salmon, roast pork with apple or a cheeseboard.

Expect ripe orchard fruit syrup and smoked honey on the nose. The palate opens with smoked applewood before maple honey and spiced pear come through, finishing with gentle smoke and oak spice.
A good pick for whisky drinkers who want sweet fruit with a light touch of smoke.
