The BenRiach Sherry Wood Aged 12 Years, according to those behind it, is a sherry bomb of a whisky in that it was made using three styles of sherry cask maturation: full sherry cask maturation, combined with Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso sherry cask finishing. The result is a desert friendly Scotch which was one of five BenRiach expressions to win gold at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition 2018.
“BenRiach Sherry Wood Aged 12 Years uses three-way sherry wood maturation, a creative approach where each facet is combined in harmony to deliver a rich and balanced taste,” said BenRiach Master Blender Rachel Barrie in a prepared statement. “The result – a multi-layered Single Malt Scotch Whisky with notes of fruit cocktail, lilting spices, honeyed caramel and chocolate sweetness – an enrichment of BenRiach’s signature sweet, fruit-laden style.
