Benromach Contrasts: Unpeated 12 Year Old Sherry Cask Matured

Benromach Contrasts : Unpeated 12 Year Old Sherry Cask Matured is an exceptional single malt Scotch whisky from Benromach Distillery's experimental Contrasts series. Departing from the distillery's signature subtle peat smoke style, this expression is distilled using 100% unpeated malted barley and matured for 12 years exclusively in first-fill Sherry casks, delivering a rich, full-bodied Speyside whisky bursting with dense dried fruit sweetness, warm oak spice, and classic sherry character.

Food Pairing: Rich dark chocolate, sticky toffee pudding, aged Stilton cheese, or roasted venison.

Tasting Notes : Deep mahogany hue with a rich, full-bodied, and silky mouthfeel.

Nose : Rich sherry notes, stewed raisins, dark chocolate, sweet orange peel, cinnamon spice, and warm oak.

Palate : Creamy and rich with layers of fruitcake, candied cherries, cloves, cocoa, toasted nuts, and sweet honeyed malt.

Finish : Long, warming, and sweet with lingering dried fruit, gentle oak tannins, and warm winter spices.

Serve : Served neat at room temperature or with a few drops of water in a Glencairn glass.
