Суммаризация отзывов
Отзывы в целом сходятся на фруктовом, яблочно-грушевом профиле с мёдом, ванилью и дубом, часто с лёгкой горчинкой и специями. Мнения о балансе и финише расходятся: часть отмечает приятную сложность, часть — недостаток характера и короткий или слишком горький финиш.
развернуть подробно
В большинстве текстов нос описывается как фруктовый и сладкий: яблоки (свежие, зелёные, печёные), груши, мёд, ваниль, карамель, солод и специи; нередко упоминаются косточковые и тропические ноты (абрикос, манго, ананас), а также лёгкие следы дыма, серы или шерри. Вкус чаще характеризуют как мягкий, сладкий и фруктовый с дубом, специями (белый и чёрный перец, корица, имбирь), орехами и солодом; несколько отзывов отдельно отмечают горькие ноты, маслянистость и «классический» спейсайдский характер. Финиш в отзывах варьируется от среднего до среднего-длинного и длинного, с дубом, специями, какао, горчинкой и остаточной фруктовой сладостью, но часть текстов указывает на короткий финиш.
Общего единого вывода о качестве нет: одни называют виски приятным, сложным и сбалансированным, другие — «классическим», но без яркой индивидуальности, с недостатком баланса, слишком горьким или коротким финишем; отдельные отзывы отмечают, что вода улучшает впечатление, а также различия между релизами разных лет.

A pleasant, soft, delicate whisky that I would associate with a green, fresh apple cut into slices. A wonderful, subtle, delicate fragrance, even with some layering - I liked it the most. 22.5 22 21 21

2022 release (222849) > 2015 release (99947) The 2022 version has noticeable (when I'm little) smoke. This gives the whisky significantly more complexity. (+3 pts min.) The 2015 version looks a bit bland and bitter (sucked out barrels?) If the 2022 version has something like that, it will be perfectly absorbed and balanced by the smoke.

Sufficiently strong nose with a nice combo of sweet fruit and wood notes. The palette also has a lot of wood, supplemented with ripe orchard fruit. The finish also shows apple and wood. Fairly oily texture but nothing outspoken in terms of style, everyone's friend.

interesting whisky, fine aromas - in balance with the ABV and age to have a nice drinking strength, powerfully spicy but still Riach elegant
нос · вкус · финиш
| Нос | 87 | sour slightly matchstick sulphurous sherry, pralines with brandy filling and sugar crust, with more time some ashy smoke - I find the sherry notes really delicate |
| Вкус | 85 | more than a hint of peat - probably like the old 16 from ex peated casks but more clearly here, subtle sherry aromas (red fruit jelly) Mon Cherie sugar crust, light wood, good tannin load and pleasantly tingling |
| Финиш | 83 | Chocolate, espresso, leather, sour cherry jam |

Honestly it's fine enough, but also it doesn't have any kick to make someone want another dram.

the aroma is pleasant, moderately intense, fruity and sweet, a lot of pear, linden honey, oranges, dried apricots, a lot of vanilla, tropical fruits (some papaya, a little mango, a little melon), baked apples. An interesting aroma. Taste: aged as for 16 years, pleasant, sweet, dried apricots, mango, ripe apricot, vanilla, fresh barrel, white pepper, creamy maltiness. Finish: long, bitter , a lot of nutmeg, walnut, a lot of oak, cocoa. The whisky lacks balance, the taste is a little plain and the finish is too bitter

First core range from the Benriach distillery to review! Not a bad price for a 16 year old, let's hope the quality is good.

| Нос | 77 | Vanilla, honey, pear, fresh cut grass. Sounds like a good combination but it's a bit disappointing. |
| Вкус | 78 | Pretty bitter, what is also going trough my nose. The palate is a bit like hay, old barn and ginger like. Not what I was expecting. |
| Финиш | 77 | Bitter, not very pleasant. Maybe another time I will try it again. |

There is definitely some complexity and nice maturation starting to show up on this new addition to their revamped core lineup. Benriach’s The Sixteen, aged for 16 years in 3 separate types of casks (Bourbon Barrels, Sherry Casks, and Virgin Oak) starts off with a similar foundation to their current Benriach The Original Ten (10 Years Old), and Benriach The Twelve (12 Years Old). It’s a light, Summer dram, with peaches, apples, honey and pear on the nose. I like that there’s a slight mustiness and nuttiness on the nose when I got halfway through the bottle (and 4 months later). The palate is where this Benriach Sixteen differentiates itself from The Original Ten and The Twelve bottles, there’s this fatty, nutty quality appearing; it almost reminded me of a buttery Chardonnay. It’s different and adds complexity. But I’m not sure I’m totally smitten by those additions. Add in a long, pleasant finish and it’s a nice value, starter dram for the Summer.
нос · вкус · финиш
| Нос | 71 | Peaches, apples, honey, pear right from the start. (Halfway through the bottle): Berries, ripe apples, honey, hazelnuts, a mustiness is appearing. |
| Вкус | 72 | Medium mouthfeel, with some coating. Honey starts us off, followed by peaches, pears, and something almost buttery. (Halfway through the bottle): It’s still a medium coating mouthfeel, and honey sweetness, red apples, pears, raw almonds or hazelnuts nuttiness, and there’s a woodsy, fatty quality hitting you by mid-palate. |
| Финиш | 70 | Long finish, pleasant, light red apples, more honey. It has this easy-to-drink, Summer dram quality. |
