Benromach Port Wood Finish Single Malt Scotch Whisky 12 Year Old · 2000 Vintage

Colour

Deep copper-amber with mahogany depth and a ruby-red glow.

Nose

Opulent, fruit-forward nose with ripe plum and blackberry mingling with port-driven sweetness, plus raisin and fig. Vanilla, caramel and toasted oak weave through subtle cocoa notes, while a gentle peat whisper provides a soft, smoky backbone. Nutmeg and cinnamon add a finishing lift, yielding a luxurious, velvety depth from the Port Wood finish.

Palate

Silky and full-bodied, this Benromach reveals a port-wine sweetness braided with ripe red fruit—cherry, plum, raisin—toward a rich chocolatey core. A whisper of peat smoke lingers, while brown spice and toasted oak add structure, finishing long with dried fruit and warm, lingering richness.

Finish

Silky Port-driven finish threads red fruit, raisin and fig with dark chocolate and spice, softened by toasted oak. A whisper of peat keeps the glow alive, yielding a long, elegant warmth that lingers with berry-sweetness fading to a refined, leathery finish.
