This is a 16 year old Speyside single malt from BenRiach, distilled in 2006 and bottled by the independent Glasgow family firm Hart Brothers at 55.9% vol. It matured for its whole life in a first fill sherry butt.
The nose offers dark cherries and ripe plums, then raisins, dates and orange zest, with cinnamon, clove, polished oak, cocoa and toasted hazelnuts. The palate is rich and almost oily, with sweet sherry, dark chocolate and preserved fruit, then leather, tobacco, nutmeg, black pepper and a touch of espresso. The finish is long, with dark berries, bitter chocolate and a light nutty echo.
