Duet of first-fill bourbon and sherry casks
Matured in a purposeful duet of first-fill bourbon and sherry casks, Benromach 15 Years Old reveals a profile both complex and grounded. At its core lies first-fill Oloroso sherry oak, imparting richness, spice, and a refined depth. Complementing this is first-fill bourbon cask influence, delivering creamy vanilla, orchard fruit brightness, and a touch of toasted oak. The result is a harmoniously layered single malt that captures the essence of pre-1960s Speyside, crafted with restraint, aged with care, and bottled with integrity.

A Masterpiece of Tradition and Revival
Benromach 15 Years Old is a quietly confident celebration of Speyside’s rich past and its reimagining for a modern era. Crafted in the shadow of tradition, yet boldly distinct, this single malt reflects a commitment to pre-1960s distillation methods, meticulous cask selection, and natural presentation uncolored, unchillfiltered, and unwavering in character.
Matured in a precise combination of first-fill bourbon and sherry casks, the whisky unveils a layered and expressive profile. On the nose, soft hints of stewed apple, golden syrup, and warm oak rise, followed by glimmers of dark chocolate, Seville orange, and gentle peat smoke.
The palate delivers harmony and depth. Juicy forest fruits and rich toffee are wrapped in polished oak and balanced by delicate spice nutmeg, clove, and a wisp of peppery smoke. Each sip lingers with creamy malt, sweet citrus, and a graceful touch of charred wood.
More than a 15-year-old whisky, Benromach is a statement of restrained elegance. It embodies the art of balance: traditional yet individual, robust yet refined, Speyside in origin but singular in execution.

Tasting note
Nose:
A rich and expressive aroma unfolds with quiet elegance. Notes of stewed orchard fruits, warm toffee, and dark sherry-soaked raisins rise gently from the glass. Beneath the surface, hints of burnt orange peel, soft vanilla, and roasted nuts emerge, wrapped in subtle curls of earthy smoke. Delicate traces of cocoa, cinnamon, and old oak reflect the balance of sherry and bourbon cask influence.
Palate:
The first sip is layered and warming. Juicy blackberries, caramelised apples, and gingerbread come forward, interwoven with polished oak, dark chocolate, and clove. The first-fill sherry wood brings richness and weight, while the bourbon casks lift the texture with notes of honeyed malt, charred citrus, and a touch of cracked black pepper.
Finish:
Long, structured, and quietly smoky. Lingering flavours of spiced fruitcake, espresso, and toasted almond remain, balanced by gentle tannins and a drying oak presence. The finish carries the distillery’s heritage forward, showcasing Benromach’s timeless style, robust yet refined, traditional yet alive with complexity.
