Overview

Benromach Peat Smoke is a boldly peated Speyside single malt from the Contrasts range. Importantly, the distillery intentionally peats the malt to a higher level than its core range. As a result, the whisky delivers pronounced smoke while retaining balance and clarity.

Moreover, the Contrasts series allows Benromach to explore individual elements of production in isolation. Therefore, this release highlights peat character without masking fruit and malt depth. In addition, you can learn more about our curated whisky selection on our About Us page:

Taste & Aroma of Benromach Peat Smoke

First, the nose opens with earthy peat smoke, bonfire embers, and fresh citrus. Next, green apple, malt sweetness, and light vanilla notes appear, adding balance. At the same time, subtle herbal tones bring added complexity.

On the palate, the whisky delivers a full and expressive mouthfeel. As a result, smoky flavours lead before lemon zest, sweet malt, and gentle spice follow through. Overall, the finish stays long, smoky, and clean. Meanwhile, bright acidity keeps the profile focused rather than heavy.

How to Enjoy This Peated Speyside Single Malt
