I bought this because of distillers rating and I wanted to be disappointed because of the whole "organic" label even though it's really young, over hyped perhaps/trendy? I have not had the benromach 10 year, so I cannot compare. This is a really tasty dram. Very well made and I have no complaints, it exceeded expectations. I would buy it again down the road. Worth a try. Smooth, vanilla, caramel, smooth.
