Benriach 12 Year Old

Colour: Pale Gold.

Nose: A soft nose with loads of fresh fruit, apples, coconut, wrapped in vanilla and some sweet spice.

Palate: Medium bodied, with a bit of initial bite. More fresh fruit notes and sweet spices with honey, cream and sweet barley notes emerging.

Finish: The medium finish has clean apple notes and a hint of chocolate right at the death.

Comment: A solid whisky with a very appealing nose. A touch out of balance in the mid palate, but it pulls through with pleasant flavours lingering. Not a classic, but an enjoyable fruit-driven dram.
