Brown-Forman-owned Benriach Distillery has announced the launch of four new exclusive single malt whiskeys for global travel retail. The new offerings include Benriach Quarter Cask, Benriach Smoky Quarter Cask, Benriach Triple Distilled Ten, and Benriach 22-Year-Old Triple Distilled (the distillery's oldest triple-distilled whiskey to date).
Currently, the entire range is already available in the UK and is set to make its worldwide debut on May 1. No doubt, the standout offering is the Benriach 22-Year-Old Triple Distilled, which is said to deliver a sophisticated flavor profile consisting of oak, caramel, mocha, and morello cherry, with subtle fruity notes of orange, apple, and date.
"Our mission is to enrich travellers’ journeys, and these beautiful expressions offer a wide and unique range of taste exploration for whisky lovers," said Stephane Morizet, Brown-Forman Global Travel Retail Marketing Director .
