Benromach 10 Year Old (700mL)

Speysider with all the heritage and wood-smarts to boot.      Benromach started in 1898… smack dab in the middle of the Great Scotch Whisky Depression. After a few years of floundering, they pulled themselves up by their collective kilts and hit full steam by 1911. The facility changed hands a few times to mixed success. But in 1993, Gordon and MacPhail purchased the site and started refurbishing things in 1997. They officially reopened —with a ceremony conducted by Prince Charles, no less — on their 100th anniversary in 1998, and the first “new” bottling was issued in 2004. Today they produce a wide range of Whiskies of various wood and aging combinations, all the way up to a 55-year old classic. The water comes from Chapelton Springs in the Romach Hills above the site. A genuine Cinderella Story that would bring a tear to the eye of any Whisky-lover.      Time to brag. Benromach 10YO was voted the “Best Speyside single malt - 12 YO and under” at the World Whiskies Awards in 20
