Tasting Notes

Colour

Deep Amber. 

Aroma

Smooth citrus peel with hints of strawberry and a touch of smoke. Pineapple notes comes to the fore, alongside fruitcake and a dash of lemon sherbet.

Palate

Stewed fruit aromas are complemented by orange zest and a hint of aged leather. Medjool dates and flambéed banana give way to toasted almonds.

Finish

Full and long finish with cracked black pepper and a wisp of smoke.

A TIMELESS DEDICATION TO CRAFTSMANSHIP

A rare and prestigious single malt such as Benromach 50 deserves a bottle as special as the spirit within. Each of our stunning decanters has been expertly handcrafted by luxury glass pioneers GLASSTORM, one of Britain’s most exciting hot glass studios. All 248 decanters have been skilfully hand-blown by masters of glass 
and meticulously etched with exquisite, battuto-style detailing. Every facet is painstakingly engraved onto the glass by hand, ensuring each and every decanter is truly one-of-a-kind.

“There’s a great synergy between the craftsmanship of glass blowing and whisky making. It takes a lifetime of practice and dedication, with skills passed down from master to apprentice – exactly like they do at Benromach.”

Brodie nairn

glasstorm owner

“It is a privilege to have been part of the team who has created and nurtured this whisky for 50 years. To be part of something that special is a once in a lifetime moment.”

“When you try this whisky for the first time, it’s so complex, yet it’s so subtle. You need to give it time to allow its story to unwind. But when it does, it’s really a truly rewarding experience.”
