Benriach – 15 Years 1997 Single Cask #4434 Marsala Wood Finish

Benriach 1997 Single Cask Bottling #4434 15 Years Marsala Wood Finish is a distinctive Speyside single malt from Benriach Distillery, a producer founded in 1898 and celebrated for its experimental maturation techniques and diverse cask programme. Benriach has built a strong reputation for balancing traditional Speyside fruit character with innovative finishes, and this limited single cask expression highlights the richness imparted by Marsala wine casks. On the nose, it opens with aromas of dried figs, honey, sultanas, baked apple, and sweet wine notes layered over soft oak spice. The palate is rich and rounded with flavours of caramelised fruit, raisin bread, toffee, cinnamon, and dark honey, complemented by subtle nutty undertones and gentle oak tannins. The finish is long, warming, and fruit-driven with lingering sweet spice and dessert wine character.
