Tasting Notes

Benromach Contrasts Virgin Oak is a delightful surprise for whisky enthusiasts. This limited edition single malt whisky from the Speyside distillery is a true delight for the senses. Aged for 10 years in first-fill American oak casks, it unveils a captivating aroma that tantalizes the nose with tantalizing notes of banana bread, zesty lemon peels, creamy vanilla, and a hint of crumbly tablet. On the palate, it's a tantalizing dance of tangy marmalade, buttery butterscotch, soft smoke, and decadent vanilla fudge flavors. The finish lingers with a delightful citrus note accompanied by a rich oak char character. This whisky boasts a fragrant, buttery profile with well-rounded layers of sweetness, fruitiness, and subtle smokiness, making it a truly indulgent and memorable dram.
