Cask: Ex-Bourbon & 2010 Château Cissac Bordeaux Wine Cask
Tasting Note: Classic Benromach sweetness, with plum, cherry, soft smoked pear and cinnamon roll flavours. A touch of peppery warmth on the palate and a long, chocolatey finish
Benromach distillery was bought by famous independent bottlers Gordon & Macphail in 1993 with the aim of acquiring more fine casks of excellent whisky. It has since become a project of passion for the company, producing a more traditional Speyside style including a portion of peated spirit.
Benromach whiskies are matured exclusively in first-fill barrels, using local Scottish barley malted with a little peat smoke before being ground into grist in a 120 year-old four-roller Boby Mill. This lightly peated barley gives Benromach whiskies their distinctive Speyside character.
