About BenRiach Distillery
Located in Speyside, Scotland, near Longmorn, BenRiach Distillery is a renowned producer of single malt Scotch whisky. Founded in 1898 by John Duff, the distillery has a rich history and is celebrated for its diverse portfolio of whiskies. In June 2016, American spirits company Brown-Forman acquired The BenRiach Distillery Company, which includes BenRiach, GlenDronach and Glenglassaugh, for £285 million. Master Blender Rachel Barrie, a prominent figure in the whisky industry, oversees the distillery’s production, ensuring a blend of tradition and innovation.
BenRiach’s annual production capacity is approximately 2.8 million litres of pure alcohol, dedicated exclusively to single malt whiskies. The distillery produces three distinct styles: classic unpeated Speyside expressions, Highland-style peated malts and triple-distilled whiskies.
Its cask maturation programme utilises a variety of casks, including bourbon, sherry, virgin oak, port and Madeira, contributing to the complexity of its whiskies. BenRiach employs traditional methods, such as floor maltings (reopened in 2013) and long fermentation periods, to enhance flavour profiles.
