2021 Ultimate Spirits Challenge

Benriach The Smoky Twelve 12 Years Old Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky (Scotland), 46% abv, $65.00, 750 ml

93
Excellent,
Highly Recommended

Tasting Note:

Concentrated vanilla, chocolate, and tea mingle to make a great first impression, which is confirmed upon the first smooth sip, densely packed with the same flavors supplanted with a noticeable amount of salty smoke that keeps this dram from veering into the gourmand.
