Benromach 2009/2020 Peat Smoke 70cl 46%

Description

Benromach’s core spirit style is lightly peated, however they do produce small batches of heavily peated whisky. This release is such an example, using peated barley of 42ppm, all distilled in 2009 and matured in first fill bourbon casks until 2020. Nose – Very rich smoke with fragrant vanilla and light citrus zest. Hints of apples develop accompanied by white chocolate. Palate – Smooth with toasted oak, honey and sweet ripe fruit. Butterscotch and marshmallow flavours lead to a lemon sherbet all alongside sweet smoke. Finish – Mouth-coating sweetness and bonfire embers.
