Benromach
Cask Strength Vintage 2008 replaces
Benromach 100° Proof in the Classic
Range.
 Benromach Distillery has announced a new
addition to its Classic Range, Benromach
Cask Strength Vintage 2008 Batch 1,
which is described as a
rich and full-bodied, limited-batch
single malt whisky.
The batch release which will be sold
worldwide with the exception of China
and the US, these countries will receive
Cask Strength Vintage market exclusives
later this year. This Benromach Cask
Strength Vintage 2008 was matured in First-Fill Sherry and
Bourbon casks and there will be a total
of 5,500 bottles available to purchase worldwide from
today.
Laid down in 2008 before being bottled
in 2019, Benromach Cask Strength Vintage
2008 is a 10 year old whisky. The golden
amber dram is said to have notes of cracked
black pepper, fruits and milk chocolate,
with a delicate smoky edge on the
palate, with a long, deep
finish with subtle smokiness and bonfire
embers.
Bottled at cask strength (57.9% ABV),
Benromach Cask Strength Vintage 2008
Batch 1 will replace Benromach 100°
Proof in the Classic Range. The new
expression will provide single malt
Scotch whisky fans with subtle
variations on the flavour profile of
Benromach 100° Proof with small strength
and natural colour variations reflecting
different batches.
Keith Cruickshank, Benromach Distillery
Manager, said: "By offering the
opportunity to own and enjoy batch
releases, we are able to further
showcase the expertise of our distilling
team while determining the right time to
bottle each batch to take full advantage
of the remarkable single malt whiskies
we produce. We believe this expression
will allow Benromach drinkers to
understand more about the provenance of
the whisky they are drinking.
"Every whisky we release has been
carefully handcrafted by our close-knit
team of distillers. While retaining the
overall flavours that Benromach
consumers have enjoyed in Benromach 100°
Proof, the new Cask Strength Vintage
release will differ subtly in both
strength and flavour profile, reflecting
the specific casks chosen from the
vintage year."
Benromach Cask Strength Vintage 2008
Batch 1 is presented in an elegant
bottle with shapes and textures inspired
by the Speyside distillery. The copper
cut medallion on the packaging signifies
the moment in time when the distillers
cut to the sweet heart of the spirit
run. Each bottle will detail the vintage
year, batch number and age.
Benromach Cask Strength Vintage 2008
Batch 1 will be available in selected
markets worldwide with a recommended
retail price (RRP) of €69.95 (£59.95).
Prices in local markets may vary
depending on local taxes and duty.*
Benromach is one of only a few
distilleries in Scotland to use
traditional methods, without any
automated machinery. The small team of
distillers employ all their senses when
crafting the classic Speyside single
malt Scotch whiskies, managing the
process by sight, sound and touch to
create the unique, handcrafted and
authentic Benromach taste.
