After ten years of maturation and a 24-month finish in first-fill Sauvignon Blanc barriques, this Speyside whisky presents itself in a golden amber hue with fruity aromas of sweet malt, citrus, and green apple. The vibrant acidity of the wine cask lends structure, while toffee, spice, and dark chocolate provide balanced depth. Bottled at a robust 55.6% ABV, unfiltered, and without added coloring, it unfolds its full aromatic intensity. As a single cask from Brave New Spirits ' Cask Masters series, this whisky from the Benrinnes Distillery displays a harmonious blend of sweet creaminess, ripe fruit, and a long, chocolatey-dry finish.
