Following the launch and redesign its core expressions, Benriach has releasing three new premium expressions — Benriach Twenty One, Twenty Five and Thirty Year Old Single Malts.
Matured in a diverse selection of distinctive oak casks and combined with layers of smoke, each aged expression has been meticulously composed by Benriach Master Blender Rachel Barrie and her team.
The Twenty One is a blend of four matured casks: bourbon, sherry, virgin oak and red wine; while the the Twenty Five –is a blend of bourbon, sherry, virgin oak and madeira wine. Finally, the Thirty is a blend of bourbon, sherry, virgin oak and port.
“It’s a real honor to be able to offer our fans an opportunity to experience the diversity and versatility of Benriach’s orchard fruit-laden style, elevated by a longer maturation time,” said Rachel Barrie, Benriach Master Blender. “These older expressions are a beautiful reflection of the landscape around the distillery with intriguing, luxurious layers of flavor imparted by the eclectic casks sourced from around the world. The refreshed Benriach range is for those open to new possibilities, building on a wealth of experience and tradition. I invite the drinker to join me on this creative journey, as we explore the lush rewards of single malt whisky.”
The newly-released expressions are a continuation of the distillery’s core range, The Original Ten, The Smoky Ten, The Twelve and The Smoky Twelve.
