Producer's description
In 1898, John Duff, the owner of the Longmorn distillery, decided to expand his holdings and built a new Benriach distillery on a neighboring site. Financial difficulties forced Duff to sell the distillery soon after, so it only worked under his management for two years. After the sale and until 1965, the Benriach distillery produced only malt for the Longmorn distillery. Later, the distillery was rebuilt, was owned by several companies and was closed again. In 2004, the Benriach distillery was acquired by the world-famous Scot Billy Walker, who, together with his partners, not only restored the distillery, but also brought it to a leading position. Soon after, 12, 16 and 20-year-old Benriach whiskeys were released, as well as the Curiositas series. Today, the Benriach distillery offers a fairly wide range of products from classic Speyside-style whiskey to whiskeys with various wine "finishes".
