Description

Aged in first-fill bourbon casks and peated to a moderately high PPM (47ppm), this smoky, intense Speyside single malt Scotch whisky maintains the good standards of the reputable Benromach Peat Smoke range with an offering that is beautifully balanced and peated with a considerate hand.

Nose

Rainwater on a bonfire begins an elegant but powerful nose. Rich peaty notes waft throughout as perfumed fruits and wood shavings linger.

Palate

Citrus rinds bring a tart sharpness to smoked cheeses and ham, as a little red berry sweetness tames the thick ashy backdrop.

Finish

A little menthol thyme grows with confidence.

Reviews for Benromach Peat Smoke 2008 (bottled 2018)

Rough but interesting

Nose: Not very peated. More like grappa: a sweet, raisin like smell with presence of alcohol and other chemicals. Taste: First somewhat peppery, then an oily character with a bit of smoke. Finally, some oak bitterness. Medium long after taste. A dash of water makes the smoke last a bit longer. A little rough - this will not replace my Islays; but an interesting whisky with its own character.
