Description
Distillery bottling Benriach 15 Years Old Solstice Peated Port Finish
‘Solstice’ is a heavily peated BenRiach which started off life in ex-bourbon barrels, and has then been finished in Tawny Port Pipes. Benriach say that what makes this release so special is that these casks are some of the best they have in the warehouse – they are simply sensational. Both Billy Walker, master blender, and Stewart Buchanan, distillery manager, have identified these casks as exceptional. ‘Solstice’ is aged over 15 years old, is non chill filtered, and is bottled at 50% vol. It is packed in a deluxe gift box.
