@tomgillingwater.bsky.social@thewhiskywire.bsky.social delivers another set of absolute top-drawer drams #BenromachWhisky All 4 were great, but the 12yo and 21yo were exceptionally good imho. Benromach are making some superb liquid. Huge thanks 🙏 (and sorry for being late 🫣🤣)
@tomgillingwater.bsky.socialOld and elegant on the palate too, with very little alcohol heat. The orange sweets have now morphed into Seville marmalade, with warming ginger and just the faintest hint of gentle smoke. There are also a load of other fruits hiding in the background (incl apples and plums) #BenromachWhisky
@tomgillingwater.bsky.socialOn to the final #BenromachWhisky dram of the night. 21yo 🤤 Much more old wood on the nose compared to the first 3 drams, with a lovely old library/leather note to the fore. Very little smoke. Candied orange sweets, cream sherry, beef stock, and butterscotch.
@tomgillingwater.bsky.socialThe sherry cask and wood are much more present on the palate, with plenty of lively spices and Black Forest gateaux. Gentle smoky finish. A more refined and less boisterous version of the 12yo #BenromachWhisky
@tomgillingwater.bsky.socialThat 12yo is going to be hard to beat…let’s give the 15yo a shot #BenromachWhisky Much more subtle nose than the 12 (perhaps the lower ABV is contributing), but noticeably carrying the same distillery profile. The smoke and industrial notes are dialled back, revealing dark chocolate and pipe tobacco
@tomgillingwater.bsky.socialThe palate is thick and industrial. The dirty/oily smoke is at the forefront, definitely delivering an old school profile. The dry sherry notes then come to play, with some smoky bacon crisps for company. Long, smoky finish. This is a banger 💥 And crazy good value to boot. #BenromachWhisky
@tomgillingwater.bsky.socialLet’s move on to the new #BenromachWhisky 12yo. Boom! What a nose. A big step up from the wine finish for me, with so much more of the classic Benromach notes. Oily smoke and a diesel soaked cloth all wrapped up in luscious fruity sherry notes with a sweet edge.
@tomgillingwater.bsky.socialTannins dominate the palate, with the dirty smoke fighting to be heard. It leads to a lovely, long finish where the fruits and smoke appear to have eventually reached an agreement to share the limelight #BenromachWhisky
@tomgillingwater.bsky.social@thewhiskywire.bsky.social has issued orders to try this one first #BenromachWhisky The nose is very autumnal, with brambles, overripe plums, and port-esque tannins. Whiffs of the industrial smoke I associate with Benromach come later.
