Benromach 1976 18 Year Old Hart Brothers

Benromach BENROMACH 1976 18yo HART BROTHERS 43%
Bottle #ベンローマック(BENROMACH)
A pleasant old bottle. Benromach BENROMACH 1976 18yo HART BROTHERS 43% The aroma has a pleasant old feel, with orange marmalade, heated apple, a slightly damp and refined barley note, honey and cream, with a subtle smokiness. When drunk, it is smooth with some viscosity, the barley's umami lingers on the tongue, with notes of orange and apple, a slightly dried plant sensation, honey-like sweetness, and a slightly creamy finish. [Good/Very Good] The Benromach 1976 from Hart Brothers, aged for 18 years, is believed to have been bottled around 1994. Although approximately 20 years since bottling, it has developed a nice old character, becoming smooth and refined with a slightly velvety nuance. It seems as if the damp, refined barley notes have seeped into a variety of heated fruits, making it a typical example of a good old bottle, especially in terms of texture. #Benromach (BENROMACH)
