Distillery Profile

Taste rating:3

Region: Speyside

Light, dry and fresh.

Owner: Private group, headed by two South Africans.


Benriach - OB 40%alc. Benriach - OB 40%alc.

Basic bottling from the new owners of an otherwise unloved distillery, let's all hope they can change that. Good luck to them, a tough job but there's nothing wrong with the spirit.


(Price excluding VAT:  £17.53) £20.60 Including VAT at 17.5%


Benriach - 'Curiositas' Peated OB 10yo 40%alc. Benriach - 'Curiositas' Peated OB 10yo 40%alc.

Official bottling of the unusual peated Benriach, not as peaty as Signatory's bottling.

[Blind tasting note from RJ during the SFWC:

SCORE: 4/5

Germoline, smoky nose - bold but not pushy. Good, sweet, peaty whisky. Well balanced and charming!]




(Price excluding VAT:  £20.77) £24.40 Including VAT at 17.5%


Benriach - OB 12yo 40%alc. Benriach - OB 12yo 40%alc.

Presentation similar to the no age.


(Price excluding VAT:  £20.34) £23.90 Including VAT at 17.5%


Benriach - OB 16yo 40%alc. Benriach - OB 16yo 40%alc.

Presentation similar to the no age.


(Price excluding VAT:  £26.64) £31.30 Including VAT at 17.5%


Benriach - OB 20yo 40%alc. Benriach - OB 20yo 40%alc.

Any more? No I think that's it for the moment.

Phew!


(Price excluding VAT:  £39.91) £46.89 Including VAT at 17.5%


Benriach - 'Authenticus' Peated OB 21yo 46%alc. Benriach - 'Authenticus' Peated OB 21yo 46%alc.

Peated variant from the management that was mucking about with different styles many years ago.

The packaging suggests it's very peaty. Not tried it.


(Price excluding VAT:  £48.94) £57.50 Including VAT at 17.5%


Benriach - Heavily Peated S 1994 12yo 46%alc. Benriach - Heavily Peated S 1994 12yo 46%alc.

Well ! Here's something different and will throw a new light on 'great' and 'lesser' distilleries.

A young, heavily peated dram as good as ant young drams from the south of Islay! A cross between Ardbeg and Caol Ila with pleasing ballance.

"It does exactly what it says on the tin" to coin a TV advertisment.

On the Malt Whisky Flavour Map we reckon this belongs in square: D9
Light / Smoky

A Signatory independent single cask bottling, bottled without filtration leaving all the yummy flavours locked in for you.

See 'label explanations' above for more information.
