It's the 2009 vintage Château Cissac Wood Finish expression from Benromach. This is initially matured in first-fill bourbon casks, then moved over to casks from Château Cissac in Haut-Médoc for 25 months before being bottled at 45% ABV. We love the specificity of these releases from Benromach (and the whisky is marvellous too - it's not just nerdy features that we're fond of here).
Massive fruit influence - apples, grapes, mango and orange.
Grapefruit, black pepper and a hint of smoke.
Caramel-filled chocolate, anise and thyme.

Gorgeous single malt on the lighter side with wisps of peat. Give it time and you'll be rewarded. 88/100
