Benriach Smoky Quarter Cask 1L, 46%

Description

Benriach Smoky Quarter Cask 1L 46% is a peated Speyside single malt Scotch whisky that highlights the distillery’s smoky side while keeping the fruity character Benriach is known for. The distillery describes it as a combination of unpeated and peated spirit, first matured in bourbon barrels and then given a second maturation in bespoke quarter casks.

The use of quarter casks is central to the style of this release. Because these smaller casks create more contact between the wood and the spirit, they help intensify flavour and texture, building layers of ripe fruit, vanilla, wood smoke, and oak spice. Benriach’s official tasting profile points to woodsmoke, pear, freshly kilned malt, smoked nectarine, peppered malt, creamy vanilla, mellow smoke, and nutty oak.

This 1 litre bottling is also associated with travel retail, which makes it especially appealing for customers looking for a larger format and for enthusiasts interested in discontinued or less commonly seen Benriach releases. It is bottled at 46% ABV.

Collector’s Note

Benriach Smoky Quarter Cask is an appealing bottle for Benriach followers because it shows the distillery’s peated style in a format that is less standard than the core 70cl range. The 1 litre travel retail presentation adds extra interest for collectors, especially where these bottles become harder to source over time. That collector appeal is an inference based on the travel-exclusive format and the way such bottlings are typically viewed by enthusiasts.
