The BenRiach Smoke Season is a special whisky from the renowned Speyside distillery, BenRiach, known for producing some of the smokiest whiskies in the region. Despite a challenging start, BenRiach has evolved into a well-respected brand for Speyside Single Malts, offering high-quality whiskies with unique and captivating flavors. The Smoke Season is a testament to this legacy, crafted from 100% peated malt and double matured in both American virgin oak and bourbon casks. Bottled at 52.8% ABV, this small-batch release is a celebration of the distillery's signature sweet peat. On the nose, the Smoke Season presents enticing notes of orange peel, chocolate, and rich caramel. The palate is decadently layered with the sweetness from the virgin oak casks, featuring dark vanilla and stewed apple, alongside dry oak, woody smoke, and gentle spice. The finish is nutty with a smoky peppercorn aftertaste. This whisky is a limited edition, offering a rauchiger Geschmack (smoky flavor) that sets it apart from other BenRiach expressions.

BenRiach Smoke Season presents a fruity, creamy, and slightly sweet profile with a distinct, but well-integrated smoky note. The alcohol content of almost 53% ABV fits perfectly, gradually releasing the multi-layered flavors. On the nose, one detects sweet vanilla paired with campfire smoke, fruity notes of grilled apricots and peaches, along with honey and caramel. The taste is sweet and fruity, with creamy vanilla, peach, stewed apples, honey, spicy oak, cinnamon, and subtle wood smoke. The finish is medium-long, sweet, creamy, and spicy with hints of anise, pepper, BBQ, and smoke. Adding water enhances the fruity nose but makes the palate drier with more pronounced smoky notes, dry oak, and cold ash.
