Benromach Pago Capellanes Picon Wood Finish Single Malt Scotch Whisky 7 Year Old · 2002 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with coppery highlights and a sun-kissed bronze glow.

Nose

Peat-kissed malt rises with orchard fruits, apricot and lemon zest, carried by softly sherried notes. Dried fig, almond and toffee mingle with vanilla and a trace of cocoa. Subtle smoke, leather and a whisper of citrus oil lend elegance, while a delicate nutty sweetness hints at the Picon Wood finish.

Palate

Peat smoke entwines with sherry sweetness on the palate. Dried fig and plum meet treacle, cocoa nibs, and orange zest, layered by warming spice and toasted oak. The Picon Wood finish adds a nuanced red-fruit lift and a long, ember-soft finish of smoke, spice, and subtle tannin.

Finish

Long, refined finish with subtle peat smoke and a rich sherry-tinged sweetness. Dried fig and orange zest unfold against dark chocolate and toasted oak, ending in warm spice and a caramel-vanilla glow that lingers softly on the palate.
