The latest whisky new releases in stores now.
Benromach 15 Years Old (43%, OB, 2018)
Benromach 15 Years Old Whisky Review: A wonderfully complex dram with zesty fruits, chocolate and sherry influences, the added maturation adds a little more oak wood influence and spice over the 10 year old and 100° Proof expressions. A great price for a characterful 15 Year Old Speyside whisky. 88/100
Benromach 10 Years Old 100° Proof (57%, OB, 2018)
Benromach 10 Years Old 100° Proof whisky review: A much richer and darker fruit and chocolate filled experience when presented at this strength, much more malty feeling too though this is probably a mixture of a concentration effect of the flavours found in the reduced version and higher ABV. 85/100
Benromach 10 Years Old (43%, OB, 2018)
Benromach 10 Years Old Whisky Review: A lovely cereal and fruit packed dram delivered with just a wisp of smoke. Still an impressive little whisky for an entry-level expression. 84/100
