Benromach Contrasts 2012 High Enzyme – 46%

Old school and innovative: Benromach combines both characteristics under one roof. The small distillery is reviving an almost lost style of peated Speyside whiskeys and at the same time experimenting with single malts outside the usual range for the distillery in its Contrasts series.
With the Benromach Contrasts: High Enzyme 2012/2024, enthusiasts have the rare chance to try a single malt made from enzyme-rich barley. Because: The unpeated barley with a high enzyme content is usually used to make grain whiskey.
The higher enzymatic activity influences the fermentation process and creates a distinctive taste profile. Fresh aromas of lemon candy, green apple and peppermint meet the sweetness of honeycomb and pineapple as well as roasted oak and spicy pepper.
