Edencroft – New Benriach, Braeval & Glendronach Malts!

December 3, 2013 by Gary Leave a Comment

Edencroft – New Benriach, Braeval & Glendronach Malts!

Edencroft has 9 New additions to it’s range this week with some fine Highland and Speyside malt whiskies.

They are Benriach, Braeval and Glendronach malts with ages running from 12 to 35 Years Old.

Supplier	Brand	Bottle Size	Price
Edencroft	Benriach – 1994 Cask # 4386 Country: Scotland Region: Highlands Age: 19 Years Strength: 55% Summary: The BenRiach Distillery is located in the Heart of Speyside, between the village of Rothes and the town of Elgin, in the North-East of Scotland. The Spey Valley, in which the BenRiach Distillery was built by John Duff in 1898, is home to many of Scotlands great whiskies, but BenRiach has its own uniqueness borne from the particular methods and skills of the men who craft the whisky, the ingredients they use, the distinctive copper stills and the high quality barrels selected for maturation. And, BenRiach boasts one further difference – standing apart from the other Spey Valley distilleries, the traditional floor maltings with their distinctive pagoda style chimneys can produce peated, malted barley, enabling the distillery to capture the defining taste of peat reek in a few of their special bottlings. Cask Type: Virgin Oak Hogshead. Cask Style: Virgin Oak finish. Colour: Rich harvest gold. Nose: A perfect balance of toasted oak spices and sweet barley. Waves of ripped fresh mint and sweet gooseberries add a delicate fruit background. Taste: A powerful richly oaked character develops into waves of toasted coconut and fruit salad. Vanilla and barley sugar fill the mouth in the classically long sweet oak finish.	70cl	£ 82.50 BUY NOW
Edencroft	Benriach/batch 9 – 1990 Cask # 2596 Country: Scotland Region: Speyside Age: 22 Year Old Strength: 53.40% Summary: The BenRiach Distillery is located in the Heart of Speyside, between the village of Rothes and the town of Elgin, in the North-East of Scotland.

Cask Type: Tawny Port Pipe. Style: Tawny Port Finish. Colour: Coffee-bronze. Nose: Vanilla, orange and milk chocolate in a wonderful wrestling match. Taste: Rich tangerine notes with engaging contributions from sweet spices and vanilla-honey.	75cl	£ 87.50 BUY NOW
Edencroft	Benriach/batch 9 – 1976 Cask # 6967 Country: Scotland Region: Speyside Age: 35 Year Old Strength: 54.9% Summary: The BenRiach Distillery is located in the Heart of Speyside, between the village of Rothes and the town of Elgin, in the North-East of Scotland. The Spey Valley, in which the BenRiach Distillery was built by John Duff in 1898, is home to many of Scotlands great whiskies, but BenRiach has its own uniqueness borne from the particular methods and skills of the men who craft the whisky, the ingredients they use, the distinctive copper stills and the high quality barrels selected for maturation.

Cask Type: Butt. Style: Classic Speyside. Nose: 23 creaky old leather and dusty libraries… I feel quite at home; some spiced up juicy dates, too; Taste: an engrossing experience: the grape is almost as fresh as it must have been way back in the days when Abba were topping the charts. The inevitable spices hold firm, setting into a rich fudge and mocha middle; Finish: some vanillas and tannins peel off from the grape and it is the popping vanilla pods which have the very last say; Balance: it is impossible to ask any more of an old sherry cask from Benriach than this: quite magnificent. — Jim Murrays – 2013 Whisky Bible.	75cl	£ 305.00 BUY NOW
Edencroft	Benriach/batch 9 – 1977 Cask # 2588 Country: Scotland Region: Speyside Age: 34 Year Old Strength: 14% Summary: The BenRiach Distillery is located in the Heart of Speyside, between the village of Rothes and the town of Elgin, in the North-East of Scotland.

Cask Type: Rioja Barrel. Style: Rioja Finish. Nose: an intriguing head-on meeting of fruit salad and barley sugar… with some spiced vanilla thrown in to remind you of the age; Taste: silky yet strangely well mannered for a malt which has plenty of spices just bursting to escape; Finish: creamy textured, long and deliciously chewable. Some of those spices finally make it into general play; Balance: clean, sweet and quietly understated. — Jim Murrays – 2013 Whisky Bible.	75cl	£ 236.00 BUY NOW
