BENRIACH 12 ans The Twelve Valentine Dardel

Founded in 1898, the Benriach distillery has cultivated a bold spirit of experimentation for more than a century, giving rise to some of the richest and most complex Single Malts in Speyside. A true creative workshop, Benriach stands out for its almost artisanal approach to whisky-making, blending technical mastery with artistic sensitivity. Supported by exceptional expertise and an eclectic collection of rare casks, the distillery composes an aromatic palette of remarkable diversity. Like a painter playing with textures and shades, Benriach assembles its whiskies with remarkable precision, revealing subtle and deeply expressive profiles. It is also the oldest distillery in Speyside to produce both peated and unpeated whiskies, thanks to its double and even triple distillation — a rarity in the region. Benriach The Twelve is an unpeated Single Malt that elegantly embodies the sweetness and aromatic richness of the region. Aged in three types of casks — Sherry, Bourbon, and Port — it reveals a gourmet, perfectly balanced profile. Today, driven by the creative vision of Rachel Barrie, its world-renowned Master Blender, Benriach continues its sensory exploration. She offers a contemporary vision of Speyside whisky: expressive, artistic, and resolutely innovative. Valentine Dardel signs this limited edition, for just like the aromas of this 12-year-old whisky, pencil drawing is built up in layers, finding its balance in the subtle interplay of color nuances.
