Nose
Flowery, Lime tea, lemon grass, light peat.
Palate
Key lime pie. Lemon meringue. Marshmallow. Candied angelica. Shortbread.
Finish
Icing sugar. Dusty dryness.
Comment
After a weekend walk in the country? Mid to late afternoon. Who needs tea? Just a slice of fruit pie and a generous dram of Benromach.

Nose
Fresh and attractive. Green walnut, oats and then lily/freesia. Cut grass.
Palate
Light smoke but all ripe, soft and chewy. It's light but has a good sweet mid-palate with touches of fig and nut. Don't add water though.
Finish
Dry with some smoke.
Comment
Good. Well-balanced. An attractive anytime malt.
