Description

Benromach 15 Year Old Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky (70cl / 43%) captures the distillery’s traditional 1960s style, lightly peated and floor-malted, matured in a masterful balance of ex-bourbon and Oloroso sherry casks for fifteen years. This Forres gem glows pale gold, evoking Speyside’s nuanced elegance with subtle smoke. The alluring nose wafts gentle peat wisps, stewed Bramley apples, golden caramel toffee, cinnamon heart spices, damp forest earth, and wild mushrooms. On the textured palate, succulent sultanas mingle with baked orchard fruits, dark chocolate liquorice, minty peat embers, toasted hazelnuts, and charred oak resin, laced with heather honey sweetness. The lingering finish reveals leafy menthol, bitter cocoa, singed fruit cake, and faint smoky brine. Unchillfiltered for authenticity, savour neat in a Glencairn, with water, or in a Rob Roy; a refined peat lover’s delight, earning consistent accolades for purity and poise.
