What it’s like

BenRiach The Sixteen combines whisky matured in bourbon, sherry and virgin oak casks. At sixteen years, the house’s orchard fruit becomes riper and mingles with honey, spice and nuts. No smoke. It is an elegant, balanced malt, very Speyside, that gains complexity over The Twelve. Best enjoyed neat.

Nose
Baked apple, honey, almond and spice, with a floral touch.
Palate
Elegant. Ripe fruit, honey, nuts, vanilla and very well integrated spice.
Finish
Long, with soft oak and a hint of spice and honey.
