BenRiach
Three Styles, One Speyside Spirit
Founded by John Duff in 1898, BenRiach closed almost immediately when the Pattison's crash devastated the whisky industry. It lay silent for 65 years before reopening in 1965.
The modern renaissance began when Billy Walker acquired the distillery in 2004 with just 5 employees. He discovered a trove of forgotten casks in the warehouses — including peated malt nobody knew existed — and built an entire portfolio from these hidden treasures.
The Story
Founded 1898
The BenRiach Style
Classic BenRiach is fruity and honeyed Speyside malt. The peated range offers a smoke level unusual for the region. Triple-distilled expressions add a third dimension of lightness and elegance.
