Description
Benromach 10-Year-Old – The newly released 10-year-old from Gordon and MacPhail’s Benromach distillery. This was matured for the first nine years in 4/5 bourbon and 1/5 sherry casks before a year in sherry casks.
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.
Overall: A great whisky, its maturity belies its 10 years of age and the sherry finish has done wonders.
What some of our whisky enthusiast friends have said about Benromach 10 Year Old
Quote 1 “I sampled the Benromach in my city-centre pub and I have to say it was a lovely Dram not too powerful on the nose and the smokiness might be the best I’ve had in a while.”
Quote 2 “There were a few to choose from but I’m so glad I went for this. Having tried many malts in the past this ranks right up there. It’s everything – rich full-bodied with a taste of salted cured meat, fudge/toffee, Bovril, a slight tinge of sherried sweetness, and all enveloped in graceful smoke. It has the clean, crispness of Glengoyne 15. On some sips it’s like an Islay, on others a Spey. Seriously – you’ll be so glad you bought this one.”
