The ImpEx Collection Benrinnes 2008 16 year old, 54.1%

Price: 150 Issue: Winter 2023 Reviewer: Jonny McCormick Category: Single Malt Scotch

There’s a meatiness to the nose, like roasted lamb, with some oak astringency, plus lighter notes of cotton candy, banana chip, vanilla sponge, butter, and cut grass. An oily texture with lemon, honey throat lozenges, pepper, hard mint candy, menthol, almond, blueberry slushie, and some savory meatiness creeping in at the end, with honey and oak shavings on the finish.
