The distillery's philosophy is inspired by a traditional style of Speyside whisky in which a subtle element of smoke complemented the region's naturally fruity spirit.

In the Benromach 21 Year Old, extended maturation allows this gentle smoke to become beautifully integrated with mature fruit, malt sweetness and oak.

This makes the expression particularly appealing to enthusiasts who appreciate sherry-rich Speyside whisky but also enjoy an additional layer of subtle peat complexity.
