Beneath, a delicate floral perfume emerges, complemented by whispers of vanilla, toasted oak, and a faint nutty undertone. The high proof is present but well-integrated, suggesting a robust and complex aromatic experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n        \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e A powerful and full-bodied entry, immediately showcasing the cask strength. A burst of dark chocolate and espresso notes gives way to sweet caramel and butterscotch. Mid-palate, orchard fruits like baked apples and ripe pears develop, alongside a warming spice cabinet – cinnamon, nutmeg, and a touch of black pepper. The Benrinnes 'meatiness' is subtly there, providing depth, without overpowering the fruit and sweetness. The un-chill filtered nature contributes to a viscous, oily mouthfeel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n        \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long, lingering, and incredibly satisfying. The warmth from the proof gently fades, leaving behind a delightful interplay of oak tannins, dark fruit sweetness, and a touch of roasted coffee. A pleasant dryness emerges on the very end, encouraging another sip. Residual notes of treacle and a hint of smoke (not peaty, more like a charred oak) round out the experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \n      \n        \u003ch3\u003eAbout the Distillery\u003c\/h3\u003e\n        \u003cp\u003eA.D. Rattray is an independent bottler with a rich history dating back to 1868, known for sourcing exceptional single casks from Scotland's finest distilleries. While this bottling specifies 'Scotch Malt Whisky' from Benrinnes Distillery, it is essential for a bourbon expert to note this is a Scotch, not a bourbon. Benrinnes is a Speyside distillery known for its rich, complex, and often slightly 'meaty' or robust character, a result of its unique partial triple distillation process. They produce spirit that is highly sought after by independent bottlers like A.D. Rattray.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SubRosaSelections","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47756126290138,"sku":"2010 RATT 13Y 0692","price":350.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0656\/8263\/7018\/files\/AD_Ratray_Benrinnes_13-year_2010-1_5a2a9e55-6b50-4a80-83e6-1614dd0e5afc.png?v=1781023221","url":"https:\/\/takeyourpickliquors.com\/products\/ad-ratray-benrinnes-13-year-2010","provider":"Take Your Pick Liquors","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
