Official tasting notes:
Nose: Aniseed, dried apricots, whole olives, rosemary and touches of linseed oil.
Palate: Burnt sugar, quite earthy with almost a phenolic note. Very oily with praline, granite salted butter and peanut butter.
Finish: Long and drying, earthy and flinty before orange and lime notes build.

Description
Produced during the era of legend Billie Walker, Cadenhead purchased this delicious BenRiach spirit and laid it to rest for 10 years in 2-bourbon hogsheads before bottling in 2018 at a cask strength of 57.6% ABV. A young belter of a whisky that shows off BenRiach’s spirit superbly.
As with all Cadenhead bottlings, the small batch series is non-chill filtered with no added colouring.
Australia only receives a very small allocation of Cadenhead each year and this expression is not one to be missed.
