The Benromach 2011 Contrasts: Triple Distilled is a limited edition single malt whisky from the renowned Benromach Distillery in the Speyside region. This exquisite whisky exemplifies the art of triple distillation, a rare technique among Scottish distilleries, which results in smoother, lighter spirits. Distilled in 2011, this vintage expression was matured for 10 years in first-fill Bourbon casks, producing a whisky with elegant layers of delicate fruit, floral notes, and subtle peat smoke.
Upon nosing, you are greeted with a delightful aroma of strawberry, sweet vanilla, and elderflower, underpinned by honeyed sweetness, soft vanilla, citrus zest, and a whisper of peat smoke. The palate reveals a rich tapestry of creamy malt, lime zest, more vanilla, sweet elderflower, berries, and a touch of pepper, culminating in a rich smokiness. The finish is smooth and lingering, leaving a lasting impression of sweetness with a hint of peat. This unique expression is crafted with meticulous attention to detail, utilizing smaller copper pot stills for a more precise distillation process.
