1977 Benromach Single Cask #1269 41 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

After four decades in a single cask refill American Hogshead (#1269), Benromach finally released this Speyside gem in 2019. With a measly outturn of just 122 bottles, it comes beautifully presented in a bespoke oak box, designed to reflect the colour of the wooden washbacks at Benromach Distillery. At the time of writing, we have one only available.

Notes from Benromach... aromas of warm apple pie, poached pear and hints of ginger, mingling with subtle floral notes complemented by rich apricot jam. Now take a sip. Savour the notes of velvety crème brûlée beautifully balanced by undertones of warm pepper. Hints of banana develop, leading to a touch of toffee apple and delicate citrus edge. Add A FEW DROPS OF WATER and take time to enjoy the nose as it develops… Vibrant citrus and floral aromas emerge, followed by fragrant vanilla. Now lift it to your lips and enjoy a slow sip… Sweet heather honey and soft peaches mingle with smooth milk chocolate. Candied citrus peel leads to a touch of oak and tobacco on the finish. Sublime! 49.6% Alc./Vol.
