Benriach Smoke Season - 52,8%
This special edition was bottled at high strength to give fans of peated whisky an intense and unadulterated experience of its pronounced sweet peat character. Smoke Season is a small-batch release that draws on one of Benriach's traditional, seasonal production techniques. Maturation in American oak casks and bourbon barrels intensifies the toasted sweetness and brings depth and intensity to the smoky-sweet Benriach style.
The Benriach distillery lies south of the town of Elgin, right next door to the Longmorn distillery, and therefore belongs to the Highlands. It was founded in 1898, closed again as early as 1900 and not reopened until 1965. It is one of the few distilleries in Scotland that still has its own malting floors today. Since 2008, Glendronach and Glenglassaugh have also been part of the Benriach Distillery Co. Ltd.
