• Excellent value: Enjoy the character of a premium 10-year-old single malt in a compact and affordable miniature.
• Distinctive smoky style: Peat smoke adds depth without completely overpowering the whisky’s fruity character.
• Rich cask combination: Bourbon, virgin oak and Jamaican rum casks bring layers of sweetness, spice and toasted oak.
• Ideal for discovery: A smart choice for trying Benriach before investing in a larger bottle.
• Perfectly sized gift: Easy to present as a thoughtful gift, tasting sample or addition to a whisky collection.

Fruity Sweetness Meets Gentle Smoke

The first impression is inviting, with a lively blend of ripe fruit, soft sweetness and subtle smoke. Bourbon cask maturation helps provide smooth vanilla notes and a rounded feel, while virgin oak contributes a touch of toasted wood and warming spice. Jamaican rum casks add extra richness, bringing a fruity, slightly tropical sweetness that helps balance the peaty spirit.

As the whisky develops in the glass, the smoky character becomes more noticeable. It is present and engaging, but it works alongside the fruit rather than taking over. This makes The Smoky Ten a versatile choice for both experienced whisky drinkers and those who are beginning to explore peated malts. Each sip offers a pleasing mix of sweet, smoky and spicy flavours, with enough depth to encourage a slow and relaxed tasting.

A Flexible Miniature for Any Occasion

The 5cl format makes this Benriach whisky especially practical. Keep it ready for a personal tasting, take it on a weekend away or use it to build a varied whisky flight at home.

Serve it neat to appreciate the balance between fruit and peat, or add a few drops of water to open up the aroma and soften the finish.
