Benriach 12 Year Old Lunar New Year Horse Limited Edition Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700ml

In the design of Benriach Year of the Horse New Year gift set, the fiery steed stands not only as a symbol of the zodiac but also as an embodiment of strength, freedom, and triumph. As a totem of swiftness and ambition, the horse moves like the wind and surges like flames, showcasing the exuberance of life and the sublimation of energy. In Chinese culture, the horse has long been revered as an auspicious beast, representing courage, perseverance, and prosperity. It signifies an unstoppable journey ahead in the New Year, destined for triumph and renown.

The whisky from each cask is then expertly married together to create a smooth, sherry-rich single malt, layered with baked fruit, maple honey and cocoa, perfectly balanced with a lingering sultana and spiced mocha finish.
