Orange peel oil, cooked apple, vanilla. Sweet, walnuts, toffee, sherry flavor, dark toasted oak. Medium finish, ripe apples, chocolate. Nice strong sherry barrel, very smooth, but always feels a little lacking in flavor.

A fantastic Speyside peat dram with plenty of character and sherry influence – a real alternative to Springbank's 12-year-old cask strength, and all at a very fair price. I wasn't initially impressed (83-84/100), but it really improved with aeration, becoming significantly smoother and fuller. For me, it ends up being a very strong 88/100 (8.5/10) and absolutely recommendable.

нос · вкус · финиш

Нос	87	Wood smoke, aged sherry (more Oloroso than PX), oak spice, salted caramel, orange peel, leather, tobacco, then some hay and red fruits (strawberry, raisins). With more air, a distinct malt and grain note emerges, along with chocolate and sometimes a hint of barnyard. It also has a savory quality (umami/oregano/pizza dough). It opens up with water, becoming fresher and juicier, but also developing more dark, roasted notes (mocha beans, smoke, and oak).
Вкус	90	Sweet and sour, orange, tobacco, a touch of smoke (more like a campfire), and spicy notes (oak, nutmeg, chocolate). Very strong and intense, it can handle a lot of water, which then brings out more fresh notes (lemon peel, ginger, and juicy oranges). The smoke was initially a bit sharp/scratchy, but after a year in an open bottle, it became increasingly smooth and I liked it more and more. A real powerhouse with many facets, depending on the amount of water added.
Финиш	86	Oak spice, salted chocolate, stewed plums, applesauce, and a touch of pepper. It has a lot of spice and dark notes of tobacco, caffè crema with raw cane sugar, and campfire smoke. With water and air, some ginger and mint also emerge. It definitely becomes smoother and better with time.

Benromach’s 2012 cask strength release (Batch 03) is one of those whiskies that immediately announces itself with a kind of rugged charm rather than polish. Bam! Hardstyle. I bought a bottle and opened it and I was not a fan- no sir. Too hot, too strong, too much of everything. Drank a bit, put the flask in the cabinet and forgot about it. Now, I revisit this whisky. And it's good. Way better then a few years ago. Flask is halfway down now. And that is good, getting better every day. Bold, slightly untamed, and packed with character; smoke, red fruit, and earthy depth in a way that feels almost tactile. Uneven and rough. Even a bit industrial. But hey, also earthy and forest-floor like. Dancing around a campfire with some fairies. Tobacco spirits whispering in forgotton languages. I like!

нос · вкус · финиш

Нос	89	Nose opens with a familiar Benromach signature: a mix of gentle smoke, malt sweetness, and a slightly earthy, almost industrial edges. Caramel and vanilla in the background. Rough, not too polished. Hint of citrus peel, red berries, and a faintly meaty, bacon-like smokiness that gives the aroma real personality. It breathes, darker tones; cocoa, leather, and a touch of old oak— campfire, some funk. I like!
Вкус	87	High ABV! But, it's drinkable. I bought a bottle and opened it and I was not a fan- no sir. Too hot, too strong, too much of everything. Drank a bit, put the flask in the cabinet and forgot about it. Now, I revisit this whisky- and giving it some air was a good thing! Oh yes, the palate is now bold and full with sweet malt, caramel, and orchard fruits. It transforms very quickly into something more exotic with orange peel, dark chocolate, and red fruits dancing around a watered down campfire that is slowly going out. Gentle smoke, while spice builds steadily rather than exploding all at once. Earthy, slightly “dirty”. Lovely!
Финиш	86	Medium long finish that has a bit of light-heartedness: rose water with cocoa, oak tannins and lingering smoky-ashy notes that are dancing with vanilla.

dubious pleasure, whisky for those to whom the stronger, the tastier ... somehow reminded me of the unsuccessful IMHO batches of Springbank 12 CS.

This Benromach is a mercurial dram. One day it might blow your socks off with its quality; the next, it comes across as rather unpolished. Yet, that very unpredictability is precisely its charm, making each pour a thrilling experience.

Is it a Springbank alternative? Somewhat yes, if taking the price into a consideration. Comparison with Springbank CS12 (2021) - Benromach is much dryer, even with some bitterness, the smoke is ashy and lasts longer at the aftertaste. Springbank is mellow, oilier, softer, less smokiness and alcohol bite. This Benromach bottle cost 60 euros, no comparison with Springbank in our region. Cheers!

Slightly bacony smoke, dried fruits, cinnamon, cigar box (leathery cedar) Undiluted, you can taste a strong herbal woodiness on the tongue. What's exciting about Benromach is that these whiskys always have a bitter component that not everyone likes. This bottling is very sharp, dry and woody or barrel-focused. You can hardly find any sweetness here. A maximum of a few citrus fruits (orange oil) And unfortunately, real parallels to Springbank can only be achieved with a lot of imagination. At least in this batch.

Benromac is a whisky that always shows heaven depending on the condition. Depending on your personal condition, there are times when it suddenly feels like a GOAT-level performance, and other times, it's like a mediocre weak-pitched sherry. However, since CS has a rich flavor, when conditions are good, it often tastes more delicious than the score indicated here. (Score notation is average of worst and best). A whisky that combines sherry and bourbon casks in a well-balanced manner, with a little bit of peat to control the excess. It is an all-rounder whisky that can appeal to a variety of people, including those new to peat and sherry lovers.

нос · вкус · финиш

Нос	87	There is a slight buzz, but it is almost non-existent compared to the alcohol content. - Slight smokiness and peat are felt first. Pete smells like Jeong Ro-hwan, with 70% wood vinegar smell and 30% salty taste. - A honey scent with a bright floral scent. It is mixed with a light sweet smell that feels like sugar, but basically the bright floral scent makes it feel like honey. - A fragrant fruity scent similar to green apples, similar to dried apricots, but with the sweetness of sherry mixed with raisins. - Vanilla scent that supports the above notes overall - Dusty sweetness like a date palm. Personally, it feels like cookie dough and puke. These sweet flavors combined with a slight cacao-based bitterness give a feeling of about 60-70% dark chocolate. : N Summary - The fit feels strong at first, but once you get used to it, it becomes more and more fun to show various layers.
Вкус	89	- From the beginning, the green apple and dried apricot sherry flavors are very obvious. When the dusty dried apricot flavor becomes sweeter, the lemon citrus balances it out. - Dark chocolate with a fudge-like feel. It seems to feel that way more because of the dustiness mentioned above. The bitterness of the cacao gradually increases so that the sweetness does not go away. - As the sweetness of the sugar series comes back, the oak nuance makes it slightly dry and balances it out again. - Vanilla scent and pepper spice - As the sweet, sour, and bitter taste above passes, the smokiness and oily wood vinegar begin to become more prominent. : P Summary - Contrary to the scent, a style in which other flavors are felt first, and then the peat rises. When it gets too sweet, the sour and bitter flavors step in and maintain a good balance.
Финиш	86	The finish is medium to long. - The dusty taste of raisins (with a jujube-like texture) comes through strongly, along with the slightly bitter but stinging citrus of lemon zest. - You can feel the spice of cinnamon with a slightly stinging sensation on your tongue, followed by the fragrant vanilla. - As the nuances mentioned above gradually fade, the smokiness and wood vinegar gradually pop out. The overall feeling of wood vinegar has an oily feel, so it feels like it coats the inside of the mouth. - The tongue feels slightly dry with a woody oak flavor and tannin. : F Summary - Same structure as taste here. The sherry pops out first, and then the peat gradually rises to finish the mouthfeel.

The best Benromach cask strength I had until now. This is why I bought lots of bottles, to enjoy it on a longer term. I am happy I've crossed roads with the 2009 Cask Strength edition and discover this distillery and this serie. Such a pleasure! And for such a reasonable price.

A whisky with a harmonious balance of mild peat and bold sherry. The spice, which is presumed to come from the alcohol content, is also strong. If you like sherry, this is a bottle worth trying even if you don't prefer peat.

For me this is best diluted to around 52%. Great, rich mouthfeel at that strength. With all the burnt rubber sherry and sweet stewed fruits and wood (sweet and spiced) and spices (black pepper and other aromatics), with the mineralic and chalky fruit character of the distillate very present there in the background.

Damp earth, old library filled with dusty books, wax crayons, Brazil nuts, strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, maple syrup, old leather, damp cloth, gunpowder, powdered chocolate, vanilla, baking spice, unripe mango. Exceptional, as is always the case with cask strength Benromach. The best part is that there are subtle differences from batch to batch (though the overall quality is always maintained).

Pretty excellent, these days most whiskies feel like they had to skim down on something, usually the casks. But this just feels like it is just done right, maybe has a slight touch of sulfur, but the good type. Just writing down some quick notes before the bottle dissapears and I forget... Nice dusty, old school barnyard, on dried prunes, some white pepper, clean smoke, nice drying sweetness with cinnamon, strawberry jam, all very fresh and lively.

Based on the bottling quantity of Benromach's single cask batch, a batch of 21 casks would be roughly 4,000-6,000 bottles—a small batch, not too big, not too small. While it's a bit rough around the edges, what can we say at this price? Besides, the alcohol content is quite generous; the distillery is obviously telling us to dilute it with water, right?

нос · вкус · финиш

Нос	87	A clean body, with notes of citric acid, malt, eucalyptus leaves, mint, chocolate, and a hint of tobacco—typical Benromach. Being relatively young and exhibiting Cask Strength, the alcohol content is a bit high, with a slight youthful character.
Вкус	85	The body is clean, and the light to medium sherry is just like the regular Benromach I remember, but at 59.6% vol., it's a bit too strong to drink straight; I could barely taste anything. I tried adding some water. After adding water, it became much more palatable, with a medium-bodied, oily texture and notes of citrus, peach, chili, bitter almond, and leather.
Финиш	85	Long, lime, nuts, cocoa, raw dough, pepper.

I think the Benromach smoke in combination with this sherry sweetness is simply delicious. The whisky is certainly not the most complex, but what it can do is really fun in the glass.

Classic Benromach, which can be recommended in terms of quality, but is not as special as the previous batch. This one is more replaceable. It's nice and sweet, dirty and slightly fruity. Dangerously drinkable for its 60%...

In direct comparison with the 2010 Batch 01 (WB194126) and the 2009 Batch 04 (WB160343), this one has a touch of sulphur in the mix. The youngest-seeming and least polished of the three, too raw and hot for my taste.

нос · вкус · финиш

Нос	84	A lot of sherry, sooty smoke, and interesting mineral / tart notes, but also a sour / fermentary side (mixed pickles, buttermilk) and a sulphuric touch, which I probably wouldn't have spotted if I hadn't tasted it alongside two other Benromach Cask Strength bottlings.
Вкус	82	Rather rough-and-tumble, if not to say aggressive. Packs a bite, to the detriment of the flavors.
Финиш	82	At the risk of repeating myself: too much heat.

Casketje Expert Senior 88 05 nov 2023 3:40 pm

If you like Springbank and you enjoy the farmy side of Scotch whiskies, this is without a doubt one you should try. I'm thoroughly enjoying this, I get a lot of tobacco and orange notes, along with prominent meaty sherry notes and a smokey farminess that doesn't really dominate or push other aroma's to the side, just like it doesn't with SB either. Sure, the alcohol is there, which at nearly 60% is to be expected, but it is extremely well blended and balanced. It takes water quite well too, definitely doesn't fade. The finish has a lot of spiciness - I imagine that's down to European oak sherry butts (possibly)? It also has a profound bitterness, but not the traditional wood bitterness. This seems to come from the spirit, as it's a note I've come across in other Benromachs. It's interesting and isn't really disturbing to me. Either way at €60 a bottle, this is a no brainer.
