Description

Founded in 1898, Benriach Distillery in Speyside has a rich history of crafting distinctive single malts. Known for its versatile and innovative approach, the distillery was revived in 1965 after a period of dormancy. Benriach is one of the few distilleries in Speyside that uses three types of cask maturation: Bourbon barrels, Sherry casks, and virgin oak. It has been cask-matured for at least ten years in all three, all interwoven with a subtle trace of smoke.

Barley

Barley is a key ingredient in the production of some of the world's most renowned spirits, particularly whiskey and Scotch whisky. Malted barley is used as the primary grain in many single malt and blended Scotch whiskies, where it contributes a distinct malty, nutty, and sometimes smoky flavour profile. In addition to Scotch, barley is also a staple in the production of Irish whiskey, where it often lends a smoother, creamier taste. The versatility of barley as a grain makes it a favorite for creating complex and deeply nuanced spirits cherished by enthusiasts worldwide.
