Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
dark gold
air Nose
we’re very close to the Centenary but in fact, this is cleaner and rounder despite a similar ‘plasticness’. A lot of apple peelings and fresh walnuts, some smoke (garden bonfire), some metal (old aluminium pan), a little butter and dairy cream, cardboard… Interesting but pretty wacky. Benromach IS a malt that really improved after it was taken over
restaurant Palate
there are strange notes (touches of soap this time) but we’re way above the Centenary. Nice bitter chocolate, oranges, green tea, gentian, roots, earth… Its no big spirit but it ain’t weak. No mean feat at 40% and after almost 30 years in glass
timer Finish
not short, more roasted. Some kind of smoky oranges in the aftertaste
