The Lost Distillery Company Classic Selection Benachie, 43%
Price: ● Issue: Spring 2017 ● Reviewer: Jonny McCormick ● Category: Blended Malt Scotch Whisky
Benachie, formerly known as Jericho, was an Aberdeenshire distillery built southeast of Huntly that existed from 1822-1913. A dark amber dram with a nose of marmalade, ground almond, cherry lips, and vanilla essence. Attractive, but not overly aromatic. Cooked plums after a peppery rush begin an attenuated flavor journey, exiting with a spicy finale.
