Tasting
How it drinks
Sight
Deep amber with reddish hue from Bordeaux wine cask finishing; full legs
Nose
Subtle hints of rose followed by honey and ripe red fruits. The Bordeaux wine cask adds a floral, vinous dimension layered over the standard Benromach character
Palate
Smooth and sweet with zesty tangerine and dark forest fruits balanced by toasted oak. The dual maturation — bourbon then Bordeaux — creates a layered sweetness with fruit depth. Medium-bodied and fruity
Finish
Medium-bodied and fruity finish underpinned by subtle peat smoke. The Bordeaux influence lingers as dark fruit and gentle tannin. Elegant combination of Speyside malt and French wine cask
