BENRIACH
1966 VESTIGE
Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Distilled and filled to cask on the 21st of September 1966, after 46 years of maturation, the cask generated just 62 bottles. ‘Vestige’ has been so named because it represents a moment in time, a small trace of something very special that, once lost, can never be replaced. The BenRiach 1966 cask # 2381 truly is a piece of the distillery’s history.

Tasting Notes
NOSE
Fresh, clean, fruity components leap from the glass. Pineapple. coconut and ripe guava scents, interacting with one another to create fabulous fruit cocktail. This gives way to freshly cut meadow flowers and fine toasted oak. Very alluring.
COLOUR
Bright autumn gold with warm amber reflections.
PALATE
An explosion of ripe, luxurious fruit married alongside sweet toasted oak, topped with vanilla cream. The fruit takes centre stage with an abundance of soft white summer fruits - peaches, apricots and ripe pears. This is further enhanced with fresh coconut qualities. Exceptional length with timeless elegance.
