Benromach SC 2013 - Sherry HHD #306
Prix régulier $149.00
The original Benromach distillery was built in 1898 on land rented from whisky legend Alexander Edward, and it took two years before the distillery began making spirit. However, it closed almost at once and passed through a number of hands, before it was bought in 1993 as a silent, gutted shell by Speymalt Whisky Distributors (Gordon & MacPhail). The new owners undertook a 5 year renovation/refitting and released their first 10 year flagship whisky in 2009.
