Provenance - Benriach 10 year Old 70cl

Tasting Profile:
Nose: Bright and aromatic. Green apples, poached pear, vanilla cream, and a touch of honeycomb rise alongside soft barley and floral undertones.
Palate: Fresh and rounded. Juicy white fruits, toasted malt, lemon curd, and gentle oak spice roll across the tongue with a silky, medium-bodied texture.
Finish: Crisp and clean. A gentle fade of apple skin, sweet cereal, and soft spice, refreshing and refined.

Serving Suggestions:
Sip neat to enjoy its full aromatic profile, or add a few drops of water to lift its citrus and malt notes. Pair with vanilla pastries, brie cheese, or crisp green apples for a complementary tasting experience.
