The BenRiach 2009 Port Pipe #4835 is an exceptional single cask, single malt Scotch whisky, distilled in 2009 and artfully matured for 12 years in a port pipe before being bottled in 2021. Hand-selected by Master Blender Rachel Barrie for its superior taste and character, this Cask Edition is an exclusive release for the U.K. market. Free from artificial coloring and chill filtration, this robust whisky boasts an impressive ABV of 59.7%. This peated whisky embodies a beautiful coppery hue, imparted by the port pipe cask. On the nose, it opens with inviting aromas of peat smoke, dark fruit compote, cinnamon spice, toasted oak, and a hint of vanilla sweetness. The palate is rich and smooth, interweaving flavors of dark fruits with smoky notes, complemented by strong espresso, cherry, and digestive biscuits. The finish is long and lingering, with smoky undertones, balanced sweetness, and a touch of bitter oak. A testament to BenRiach's unique whisky-making heritage, which dates back to its founding in 1898 by John Duff, this single malt reflects the distillery's tradition of using water from a mineral-rich aquifer beneath the distillery. This particular Port Pipe Cask Edition, drawn from Port Pipe #4835, yielded only 753 bottles, making it a rare and invaluable addition to any collection.
