Benromach 2007 Hermitage

Limited release from the Speyside distillery matured in wine casks from Hermitage Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée, in the northern Rhône region of France. A sweet, fruity dram, with succulent dark cherry and orange flavours. £40.12 Benromach Distillery was designed by Charles C. Diog and constructed at Forres in the Speyside whisky region for D. McCallum and F.W. Burickman in 1898. Following numerous periods of closure, it was purchased in 1993 by Gordon & MacPhail who charged up its single pair of stills in 1998 and have nurtured Benromach ever since. Striking new labelling combined with an increasing range of single malts is forging a very popular brand of single malt whiskies which includes Benromach Organic, Benromach Peatsmoke and Benromach 10 Year Old.
