This latest release from the Forres based distillery, is said to epitomise Benromach’s classic style. It has an exceptional vintage character, with rich fruits, fresh citrus and charred oak with subtle spice and a light touch of smoke on the finish.

Benromach 20th Anniversary bottling, comes presented in a special Benromach bottle, nestling in an elegantly lined wooden box. It also features copper detailing, reminiscent of the distillery’s two copper pot stills.

Commenting on the launch, Keith Cruickshank, Distillery Manager at Benromach, who joined the company as a Distiller in 1998, said: “When we began distilling again in 1998, we wanted to recreate the unique Speyside whisky taste which historically had a touch of smoke. The 20th Anniversary Bottling uses the finest ingredients to create a gorgeous whisky that has exceptional depth and smoothness. “This new expression gives Benromach lovers around the world the chance to own and taste a moment in time from the distillery’s rich history. Part of the Benromach classic range of single malts, this is a rare and exceptional whisky and a fitting dram to unite Benromach consumers globally to celebrate our 20th anniversary year.”

Limited to just 3,000 bottles, Benromach 20th Anniversary bottling, will be available from specialist retailers, for a RRP of £299.
