Aged to Perfection – The BenRiach Distillery Legacy
Founded in 1898, The BenRiach distillery has long been celebrated for its innovation in whisky production. Located in the heart of Speyside, the distillery has maintained a reputation for its distinctive approach to maturation and cask selection.
The ageing process plays a crucial role in the development of BenRiach 12, with the whisky resting in a combination of three different cask types—sherry, bourbon, and port. This careful selection allows the spirit to absorb a diverse range of flavours, contributing to its rich depth and smooth finish. The distillery’s expertise in cask management ensures that every bottle embodies the heritage and craftsmanship that define the BenRiach name.

Craftsmanship Behind BenRiach 12
The creation of BenRiach 12 is deeply rooted in tradition and expertise. The distillation process begins with carefully selected barley, distilled in copper pot stills to produce a refined and complex spirit.
The whisky’s depth of character is further developed through a meticulous ageing process, where it absorbs flavours from the seasoned casks. Sherry casks impart rich fruit and spice notes, bourbon casks add smooth vanilla and caramel undertones, while port casks introduce subtle sweetness and depth. This thoughtful blending of cask influence showcases the craftsmanship that sets the BenRiach apart.
Each bottle of BenRiach 12 represents a perfect harmony of tradition and innovation, ensuring a whisky that appeals to both seasoned collectors and those new to Speyside single malts.
