was supposed to see a batch late last year but never heard anymore about it. there were 2 surprise Springbank deliveries though, so I ain't complaining.

>picked these up today
Benromach is real nice. never had Sassicaia wine before, but this is quite a subtle flavor for a 12 month finish in red wine. the toasted, meaty/peaty malt and cereal notes are much more forward in the delivery. not particularly tannic or winey. kinda like a cross between a pear brandy and quince fried in brown sugar as far as the sweetness goes.

the Arran 10 is bottled in 2016. my other bottle of the 10 is from 2014. it didnt strike me as being as purely fruity like 2014 bottle did, but that was 2 years ago this April. looking to do a side by side once the new bottle has some time with the neck pour out.
