As there must be one last in all competitions, this BenRiach 16 years has filled that role this time. Another bottle affordable (49 euros) and as often when there aretwenty participants, this bottle has obtained very nice notes (90) and much less favorable ones (70). A significant difference between the extremes: 20 points. The average for this bottle is 79.71 points.
Here are the extreme notes:
Color: Gold
Nose: Very fine, floral, yellow fruits, apricots and some peppery notes.
The fruits are mingled with a slight peat, smoke and meaty, spice and vanilla.
Taste: An atypical mouth both fruity and vanilla and peat on the tar and rubber, but pleasant and elegant and not dominant.
Very pretty and balanced.
Lingering finish on the spices and some vegetal notes.
Quite clear alcoholic nose. Scent of coffee with some exotic fruit, in the style of ice cream. Some notes of wood. On aeration, touches of Marseille soap. It comes back to the coffee.
Fluid mouth, slightly pungent f in attack. Not very expressive. I do not feel much except a kind of bitterness that does not enhance the whole.
Final not very expressive neither. However, it is of medium length as some heat comes back in the mouth.
