Benromach Lat 53 o Single Cask Whisky 8 Year Old · 1999 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with golden copper highlights and a warm, honeyed glow.

Nose

Peat smoke envelops a rich sherry-laden aroma. Dried fig, red currant and warm malt mingle with dark chocolate, vanilla and toasted almond. A bright orange zest note and gentle spice lift the perfume, while a faint maritime echo lingers in the background.

Palate

Peated but refined, this Benromach opens with smoky barley and citrus zest, folded into vanilla and toffee. Sherry richness brings raisin, fig and cocoa, while toasted oak adds warmth. On the mid-palate the spice grows, then a long ember‑smoked finish lingers with dark chocolate and a final wisp of peat.

Finish

A long, contemplative finish of smoke and sherry sweetness; peat lingers with dried fig and cocoa, warming into toasted oak and a whisper of sea salt.
