After the success of the first batch comes the second batch of BenRiach Cask Strength!
The Speyside distillery selected a combination of three types of casks, bourbon barrels, Oloroso sherry casks and virgin oak hogsheads which BenRiach say has produced a richer and smoother taste profile than its predecessor, the BenRiach Cask Strength Batch 1.
Non chill-filtered and natural colour the BenRiach Cask Strength Batch 2 has been bottled at 60.6.% ABV,
Nose: Enticing sweet coconut and vanilla tablet, a lovely touch of fruit - orange and red apple, some timid oak spice and a little grassiness hiding in the background.
Palate: Juicy sweet barley, coconut coated sugar almond closely followed by delicious vibrant oak spice, honey and vanilla, slightly candied lemon, cinnamon and ginger also join the party.
Finish: A lovely long finish with sweet barley sugar, vanilla, just a hint of red liquorice, a little oak spice.
