Berry Bros. & Rudd Benrinnes 40 Year Old 1979 Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Berry Bros. & Rudd Benrinnes 1979 is an exceptionally mature 40 Year Old Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky selected and bottled by historic independent bottler Berry Bros. & Rudd. Distilled at Benrinnes in 1979 and bottled at 42.1% ABV, this rare expression offers a remarkably mature interpretation of the distillery's traditionally rich and full-bodied spirit.

Four decades of maturation have developed an elegant profile of mature orchard fruit, dried fruit, polished oak and warming spice. The long ageing brings depth and complexity while retaining the characteristic weight and fruitiness associated with Benrinnes.

Food Pairing: Pair with aged hard cheeses, roasted walnuts, dried figs, dark chocolate, fruit cake or crème brûlée.

Tasting Notes: Mature and complex with orchard fruit, dried fruit, polished oak, gentle sweetness and warming spice.

Nose: Mature apples and pears with dried fruit, honeyed malt, old oak and delicate warming spice.

Palate: Rich and elegant with stewed orchard fruit, dried apricot, subtle caramel, toasted nuts and beautifully integrated mature oak.

Finish: Long and refined with lingering dried fruit, gentle spice, polished oak and soft malt sweetness.
