Benromach Origins Batch 5 Golden Promise 2005 is a Speyside single malt distilled in 2005 using the traditional Golden Promise barley variety. This series investigates how raw materials affect the final distillate, with this batch highlighting the rich, malty character associated with this historical grain. The nose is fragrant, offering notes of toasted bread, honey and orchard fruits. On the palate the whisky is medium-bodied and exceptionally smooth, showcasing a delicate interplay between soft oak tannins and a concentrated cereal core. The finish is poised and persistent, with a lingering note of vanilla.

The distillery operate one wash still and one spirit still and annual production is around half a million litres a year. Following a period of closure, the distillery was acquired by Gordon and MacPhail in the early 1990s and bottling resumed later the same decade, much to the delight of single malt enthusiasts. The spirit is generally peated to a slightly higher level than one would expect from a Speysider, around 8 - 12 ppm.
Limited editions and cask finishes have been central to Benromach's identity in recent years while the core range offers fantastic quality across the board.
