Comments: 

This expression, presumably unpeated, is bright and citrusy. Not much apple, which I tend to associate with Benriach, but plenty of spicy notes - primarily cinnamon and cardamom. Nice stuff, but I think I was too far gone to appreciate it more. Thanks Eddie for the taste.

Verdict:

I like this.
