Description

Benromach is the Speyside’s smallest distillery, it is located on the outskirts of the ancient market town of Forres, in north-east Scotland.¬† Just two experienced distillers passionately hand-craft Benromach using the finest Scottish barley and the purest spring water from the nearby Romach Hills. They personally ensure that only the highest quality spirit is filled into sturdy oak casks before being left to mature at Benromach for many years.¬† Only when it has matured to the highest quality standards it gets to be labeled Benromach Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky.Benromach Distillery is owned and managed by Gordon & MacPhail – a family business for over 100 years.

Benromach 10yr is a multi-award winning Single Malt Scotch Whisky hand-crafted at Speyside’s smallest working distillery. Initially matured in a mix of Bourbon and Sherry casks, the whisky is transferred to European oak Oloroso Sherry casks for a final period of maturation. The result is a beautifully balanced dram, displaying a rich Sherry character, summer fruit flavours, malt creaminess and a light peat smoke influence.

NOSE: Rich Sherry influence with fruit & nut chocolate and delicate spice – cinnamon. Fresh green apples, with a malty, digestive biscuit note and light peat smoke in the background.

PALATE: Delicious forest fruits – raspberries and brambles, Sherry, malt creaminess with a stronger peat influence.

FINISH: Long, lingering, some spice and a touch of smoke.
