Benromach Cara Gold Malt, a new limited release crafted from a combination of Cara Gold malted barley and the standard lighted peated malt used at the distillery. Matured in the finest of first fill bourbon barrels for 11 years, Cara Gold malt is more typically used for beer brewing and is widely used for Golden Ales, making this a rather exciting new release.
A delightful dram, tropical fruit, pepper, toasted malt with a hint of butterscotch and vibrant sweet smoke finish.

Nose: Perfumed and sweet with passionfruit, lychee and lime complemented by a hint of malted biscuit.
Palate: Smooth and sweet flavours of pineapple, apricot and subtle pepper lead to toasted malt and a hint of butterscotch.
Finish: Vibrant and fruity with sweet smoke.
