“A whisky that has it all. Sweetness, complexity, long taste and a subtle mix of smoke and peat. All of that for 40 euro's.”
Stijn Passemiers
Description
The 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 Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
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.
