We report directly from our friends at Wu Dram Clan:
"What started as a single cask project has transformed into something much bigger. When we found ourselves in the Benromach warehouses, ready to choose the perfect cask, it immediately became clear to us: impossible. There were simply too many excellent candidates. Two First Fill Sherry casks with those deep, creamy and slightly earthy notes that remind us of the great Benromachs of old and two other First Fill Bourbon casks, rich in tropical fruit – mango, papaya, coconut – and a touch of salt and smoke almost reminiscent of the coast, particularly stood out in our minds... and in our hearts! It was impossible to choose one or the other... so why not choose them all?! Thus was born our first Small Batch with Benromach, and the first time ever that Benromach has collaborated with an independent bottler to create its own batch."
Gordon Hui, Benromach's Head of Sales, says of this bottling:
"Choosing a single cask always requires a lot of intuition: you want it to stand out and continue to express the Benromach character. But blending four casks is a whole different kind of craftsmanship... creamy, delicately smoky, and sweetly tropical: the kind of dram you dream of creating."
A whisky that captures everything we love: depth, balance, and soul, all wrapped up in the unmistakable Benromach character.
