Benromach 10yo 70cl 43%

Description

The excellent 10 Year Old expression from the Benromach Distillery is a marvellous single malt, which is matured in a classic combo of first-fill bourbon and sherry casks. Packing plenty of dried fruit, fresh vanilla and smoky notes, it's approachable but flavoursome indeed.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Dry, barley, big on malt and oak. Dry pine, fruity. A tad spirity. Sweet spices after a time and a hint of puckering prune from the sherry cask and maple fudge.

Palate

Barley, slightly herbal, a little fruit, grassy. Big on malt, ground ginger.

Finish

Mouthwateringly bittersweet. Ginger, dry sherry, almost hoppy after a while.
