Càrn Mòr Benriach 8 Year Old 2016 showcases the playful, fruit-forward style that Benriach is known for, released here as part of Càrn Mòr’s Strictly Limited series. This youthful Speyside whisky is fresh, expressive and full of character, delivering layers of orchard fruit, creamy vanilla and soft oak spice.
It pours a pale barley-gold colour and opens with aromas of pear drops, barley sugar and light citrus. On the palate it is crisp, fruity and energetic, balancing sweetness with subtle spice. The finish is clean and gently warming, with notes of vanilla cream, malt and a touch of fresh oak.
