Single Malt Whiskey Benriach 2010/2023 Best Dram Oloroso Speyside, 56.9% vol.

Dry and fruity on the nose with baked apple and orange, then becoming sweeter with figs, raisins and marzipan. Mouth-filling on the palate. An initially dry fruit sweetness with currants and dark chocolate turns into extremely aromatic and spicy notes of leather, oak and freshly ground coffee beans. Complex in the aftertaste. More spice and fruity notes of cherry and flambéed apple again, followed by unexpected smoke with malt.
