The Bennachie Vatted Malt 5cl

The Bennachie 10-year-old Vatted Malt Whisky offers a delightful experience with its rich gold color and intriguing aromas. Here are the tasting notes:

ABV: 40%

Color: A rich gold, resembling an oily texture with long fingers clinging to the inside of the glass.

Nose: The initial scent reveals barley, cereals, and wood. Hints of flowers, vanilla, and butterscotch emerge, accompanied by subtle citrus notes. When a touch of water is added, green apple nuances become more pronounced on the nose.

Moving on to the palate:

Palate: The whisky presents a mild spice intertwined with bitter citrus, harmonizing with oak, greengage, and floral undertones. It maintains a delicate character. Adding water further smoothes the whisky but also accentuates the bitter citrus elements.

Finish: The finish is quite short, leaving behind lingering notes of oak and citrus.

Overall, the Bennachie 10-year-old Vatted Malt is a good whisky. Interestingly, the Bennachie name is used for a range of vatted malts, paying homage to the original Bennachie whisky from Aberdeenshire Mountain
