BENROMACH LAUNCHES NEW FIFTEEN YEAR OLD SINGLE MALT EXPRESSION

The Benromach Distillery has today announced the launch of a new 15 Year Old expression, which will join its core range of award winning Speyside single malt whiskies.

Benromach 15 Years Old (43% ABV) has a distinctive golden amber colour thanks to long maturation in sherry and bourbon casks, and is said to taste of luscious sherry, rich fruitcake, stewed plums with hints of cocoa.

The packaging for Benromach 15 Year Old adopts the same design principles as the 10 Year Old, with the addition of gold effect detailing to highlight the premium nature of the product. The elegant bottle’s neck and shoulder resembles the shape of the Benromach stills while the box, complete with embossed hand-drawn lettering, replicates their colour.

Commenting on the new release, Ewen Mackintosh, Chief Operating Officer of Gordon & MacPhail which owns the Benromach Distillery, said: “The Benromach story is a remarkable one, and the launch of the 15 Years Old marks a significant milestone in the distillery’s history. The whisky has a great deal of character and we hope it will appeal to whisky lovers who have tried other Benromach single malts and to those who would like to see what a classic pre-1960s Speyside malt is like.”

Benromach 15 Years Old will be available from specialist retailers for a RRP of £48.99.
