Benriach Malting Season Batch 3
Benriach Malting Season Batch 3 pays homage to the distillery’s rich heritage, showcasing the traditional floor malting process that has been a hallmark of Benriach for over 120 years. Crafted in Speyside, Scotland, this single malt is produced exclusively from hand-malted Concerto barley, honoring the legacy of founder John Duff. The whisky is aged in a combination of bourbon and new oak casks, which impart depth and complexity, resulting in a spirit that reflects the craftsmanship of Benriach’s historic malt house.
On the nose, expect an inviting blend of freshly harvested barley, orchard fruits, and wild bergamot, with hints of pear and meadow honey layered over roasted malt. The palate reveals a smooth and creamy texture, bursting with vibrant notes of clementine, floral honey, and sweet barley spices. The finish is long and satisfying, with flavors of apricot, malted almonds, and a subtle hint of wild cherry that linger gracefully.
Bottled at 48.3% ABV and unpeated, this edition captures the spirit of the malting season with its unique balance of fruit, spice, and malted richness. Best enjoyed neat to fully appreciate its layered flavors, though a few drops of water can open up its complex profile.
