1991 Berry Bros. & Rudd Exceptional Casks Benriach, Cask Ref. 46507, Bottled 2023, Speyside, Single Malt Scotch Whisky (48.3%)

Description

After more than three decades, this Benriach has developed a nose of rosehip, pine forest and various waxes. The palate expands in multiple directions all at once, with bitter-orange thick-cut marmalade, firm plums and almond-topped bakewell tart. A dram like this deserves a bit of time in the glass and a quiet evening of enjoyment. I’ll be giving this both to fully explore the finish of macerated strawberries and thoughtful oak.

Barley

Barley is a key ingredient in the production of some of the world's most renowned spirits, particularly whiskey and Scotch whisky. Malted barley is used as the primary grain in many single malt and blended Scotch whiskies, where it contributes a distinct malty, nutty, and sometimes smoky flavour profile. In addition to Scotch, barley is also a staple in the production of Irish whiskey, where it often lends a smoother, creamier taste. The versatility of barley as a grain makes it a favorite for creating complex and deeply nuanced spirits cherished by enthusiasts worldwide.
