After an initial maturation in American Bourbon barrels, the BenRiach 15 Year Old Madeira Finish is finished in Madeira wine casks from the Portuguese island of Madeira. During maturation the Whisky acquires characteristics specific to the casks that have previously contained sweet and complex Madeira wine. The result is this limited edition drammer with its very unique Madeira finish that is an absolute must-try if you are into something completely different.
