Benromach Scott's Selection Single Malt Scotch Whisky Miniature 22 Year Old · 1978 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with mahogany depth and burnished copper highlights.

Nose

Sherried aroma envelops the glass: dark plum, raisin and fig weave with treacle, orange peel and vanilla. Nutty almond, leather and cocoa flesh out the middle, while a whisper of peat smoke and spice threads through, lending depth, polish, and a regal finish.

Palate

Powerful and richly sherried on the palate, with dark prune and fig fruit, raisin glaze, and toasted oak. Subtle peat smoke threads through vanilla, cinnamon and clove, while cocoa and espresso notes deepen the finish. Warming, long and peppery, the 22-year-old delivers a luxurious balance of fruit, spice and oak.

Finish

Long, luxurious finish cloaked in sherry sweetness, with dark fig and raisin lifting against warm oak. Spices—clove and cinnamon—rise alongside a whisper of smoke, settling into cocoa and espresso notes as the alcohol warmth lingers.
