BenRiach The Sixteen 16 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Seven years away, and back with age on its side — Speyside's fruit-laden signature grown richer and deeper.

• Volume: 700ml
• ABV: 43%
• Origin: Speyside, Scotland
• Style: Classic, unpeated single malt
• Age: 16 years
• Release: Core range

BenRiach The Sixteen matures for at least sixteen years across three cask types — ex-bourbon barrels, sherry casks and virgin oak — before bottling at natural colour. Time carries the distillery's orchard-fruit character into creamier, more layered territory, with stone fruit, wild honey and a nutty oak spice.

What it delivers

• Three-cask maturation in ex-bourbon, sherry and virgin oak for balanced richness
• Baked apple, apricot, creamy hazelnut and honeyed malt
• A rounded, creamy finish with dried fruit and a whisper of oak
• Bottled at 43% ABV in natural colour

Why it matters

• A returning icon, absent from the range for seven years before its revival
• Sits in the sweet spot of maturation, bridging youthful vibrancy and aged depth
• Speyside single malt from a distillery renowned for eclectic cask craft
