The Benromach distillery, owned and operated by Gordon & MacPhail, recaptures a lost Speyside style that combines traditional hand-made production methods with a disciplined approach to quality. The result is a delicately peated whisky that remains true to Speyside’s gently smokey past, while offering unique expressions suited for today’s single malt drinker.
In this session, Neil Farquhar, International Private Clients Manager at Gordon & MacPhail, delves into Benromach’s production philosophy: how its lightly peated character is shaped through fermentation, distillation, and cask selection. From the experimental Contrasts range to the signature Core collection, culminating in a rare 40 Year Old release, he reveals how time and craft shape the distillery’s enduring character.
