- Description
- Benromach's 10-year-old was matured in virgin oak casks dried in the kiln rather than air-dried, creating a distinctive comparison point within the distillery's experimental releases. This Speyside single malt demonstrates how cask preparation techniques directly influence wood influence and spirit development over its maturation period.
