Benromach Contrasts: Peat Smoke Bourbon 2014 700ml

This whisky is produced from more heavily peated malt than the standard Benromach. It has been bottled at 46%, after maturing in first-fill ex-Bourbon casks.

Nose: Very rich smoke with fragrant vanilla and light citrus zest. Hints of apples develop accompanied by white chocolate.

Palate: Smooth with toasted oak, honey and sweet ripe fruit. Butterscotch and marshmallow flavours lead to a lemon sherbet all alongside sweet smoke.

Finish: Mouth-coating sweetness and bonfire embers.
