BENROMACH 40 Year Old – 2021 Release

BENROMACH 40 Year Old – 2021 Release

Benromach distillery in Speyside was built at the end of the 19th century, and spent much of the next providing malt for the blends of its owners, who included Macdonald Greenlees, Joseph Hobbs and latterly, DCL (now Diageo), who were the first to produce a distillery bottling of its single malt as part of the Rare Malts Selection. DCL closed the distillery in 1983, selling it to current proprietors, Gordon & MacPhail, ten years later. They then had to spend the next five rebuilding it from scratch, as little remained other than the shell of the buildings. It has since become a well-regarded and widely distributed single malt.

Release in 2021, this exceptionally-mature expression was drawn from first-fill Oloroso sherry casks.

One of 1,047 bottles.
