Product description
Hepburn's Choice is a line of whiskies from the Hunter Laing & Company portfolio, with editions signed by Langside Distillers, its subsidiary.
The series is a nod to William Hepburn, the Laing brothers' maternal grandfather, a diplomat and whisky connoisseur. In September 2020, Hunter Laing changed the graphic design of the series, reserving a specific color of the label for the region from which the release comes. The Benrinnes presented here, distilled in 2010, was aged in refill barrels and then finished in a wine barrel. In 2020, its content translated into 351 bottles. Hepburn's Choice editions come mostly from single barrels and are bottled at 46% ABV, without chill filtration and with natural color
Aroma: barley malt, multi-berry jam, sugar-roasted almonds, vanilla, mocha, notes of licorice and cinnamon.
Palate: milk fudge, vanilla, grape jelly, strawberries, red currants, chocolate biscuits, notes of white pepper and licorice.
Finish: medium long, with notes of toffee, orange peel, summer berries, a touch of vanilla, white pepper and oak.
