Unfiltered, Untamed, Unapologetically Benromach
For those who want to experience Benromach in its rawest, most powerful form, the Cask Strength Vintage 2013 – Batch 1 delivers exactly that. Bottled at a bold 59.7% ABV, this release captures the full intensity of Benromach’s spirit straight from the cask — no chill filtration, no added colour, and no dilution to tame the fire. It’s whisky in its most authentic, unfiltered expression, made for those who crave depth, character, and a little heat in their glass.
Handcrafted in Speyside by a small team of distillers who do everything by eye and by feel, Benromach’s cask strength series has earned a devoted following for its balance of power and nuance. And Vintage 2013 – Batch 1 is no exception. Distilled in 2013 and released in 2022, this single malt is aged entirely in first-fill bourbon and sherry casks, giving it bold flavour, beautiful structure, and an extra layer of richness that sets it apart from younger, more aggressive cask strength competitors.
🥃 Big Flavour Meets Fine Craftsmanship
This batch is an absolute stunner from the moment it hits the glass. Expect an aroma bursting with black cherry, juicy plums, and zesty orange peel, wrapped in waves of vanilla pod, sweet malt, and warm toasted oak. A few moments later, gentle notes of smoke, nutmeg, and cocoa begin to creep in — subtle, but unmistakably Benromach.
On the palate, this whisky is intense, oily, and mouth-coating. You’ll taste everything from rich toffee and cinnamon to roasted almonds, dark berries, and tangy citrus, finishing with a satisfying glow of bonfire smoke and oak spice. It’s a dram that demands your attention — and rewards it with every sip.
For the best experience? Try it neat to start, then add a few drops of water. Watch as it blooms in the glass, revealing softer layers of fruit, cream, and earthy smoke beneath the surface.
🔍 How It Compares
If you're a fan of Aberlour A’Bunadh or Glenfarclas 105, you'll feel right at home here — but you might find Benromach's offering a bit more refined. Where A’Bunadh leans into sherry bomb territory and 105 delivers a nutty punch, Benromach Vintage 2013 strikes a balance between sherry richness, bourbon sweetness, and Speyside smoke. It’s bold, but it’s never brash.
This is a whisky that punches above its age statement thanks to high-quality casks and careful maturation. And at cask strength, every element is heightened — making this bottle a favorite among collectors and connoisseurs who want a true glimpse into the distillery’s DNA.
