Benromach Distillery

Benromach Distillery is located on the outskirts of Forres in the Speyside region of Scotland. Founded in 1898, the distillery has had an eventful history, with several closures and re-openings. In 1993, Benromach was revived by Gordon & MacPhail, a renowned independent bottler, and was completely refurbished before returning to production in 1998.

A unique feature of Benromach is its dedication to traditional production methods. The distillery uses water from the nearby Romach Hills, which contributes to the authentic flavour of their whiskies. Benromach whiskies are known for their light smokiness, a rarity in Speyside, with flavour profiles combining notes of fruit, chocolate, spice and a subtle smoke.

The whiskies are mainly matured in a combination of ex-bourbon and sherry casks, ensuring a rich and balanced flavour. The combination of traditional techniques, unique flavour and rich history makes Benromach a respected name in the world of Scotch single malt whisky.
